How See Me Flags Works

1. Take a flag. Pick one up from the bin before crossing.
2. Cross with the flag. Hold it where drivers can see it, and cross when it is safe.
3. Return the flag. Place it in the bin on the other side for the next pedestrian.

    Pedestrian Safety: A National Issue

    In its preliminary report, the Governors Highway Safety Association estimated that 7,148 pedestrians were killed on U.S. roads in 2024. That is approximately 20 people every day, highlighting the importance of pedestrian visibility and safer crossings.

    Research supports pedestrian crossing flags as a way to encourage driver yielding. A 2006 Transportation Research Board study found that driver yielding during observations of regular pedestrians averaged 74% across locations equipped with crossing flags, with rates ranging from 72% to 80%. Results vary by location and crossing conditions, and flags do not guarantee that drivers will stop.=

    A Las Vegas study compared 160 crossings with and without flags. Drivers were more likely to yield to pedestrians carrying flags while waiting to cross and less likely to pass through the crosswalk while those pedestrians were in the roadway.

    What Pedestrians and Communities Are Saying

    See Me Flags make such a difference! They are stationed near my home at a crosswalk that spans 4 lanes of traffic. Before the flags were available, I would be lucky to get one or 2 lanes to stop after a significant wait time.  Now that the flags are available, it is quite easy to get all 4 lanes of traffic to stop! I feel much safer crossing and allowing my kids to cross with the See Me Flags.

    I also drive on this road regularly and, from a driver's perspective, the See Me Flags make a HUGE difference in drawing attention to the pedestrian. I wish the flags were available at all crosswalks in my neighborhood.

    There are many intersections in our community that are dangerous for pedestrians to cross. Neighbors have lobbied for safer crossing measures but they are expensive and take years to implement. See Me Flags is a brilliant, inexpensive and safe way to cross these busy intersections. There are so many distracted drivers, this is an excellent way to grab the attention of drivers before you can safely enter the crosswalk.

    Making our community safe for all pedestrians is paramount and this simple idea could quickly be implemented around our neighborhoods. I feel better about letting my kids cross the busiest intersections with these in place. Simple, Safe and Cost Effective. Thanks for See Me Flags.

    My girls walk to school and have to cross a busy road to get there. I am amazed by how few drivers stop at the crosswalk even school buses. I think it is hard to tell that the kids are waiting to cross the street since they are just standing there in a group. Now with the See Me Flags at the crosswalk they can waive the orange flag when the are ready making it obvious to the drivers that they intend to cross the street.

    Now that the See Me Flags are there I feel much more comfortable about my girls walking to school. Why spend $10,000 on flashing lights when you can spend $199.99 on See Me Flags.

    The See Me Flags Story

    See Me Flags began when a father and daughter encountered a dangerous crosswalk in their neighborhood and decided to do something about it.

    What started as a local safety project has grown into a crosswalk flag program used by hundreds of schools, municipalities, neighborhoods, and community organizations across the country.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    1. What comes in a See Me Flags® starter set?
    Each starter set includes two storage bins, 12 crosswalk flags, and hardware for attaching the bins to most existing street signs. The bins include instructions and reflective tape.

    2. How do pedestrians use See Me Flags®?
    Take a flag from the bin, hold it where approaching drivers can see it, and cross when it is safe. Return the flag to the bin on the other side for the next pedestrian.

    3. Where are the flag storage bins installed?
    The two bins are installed on opposite sides of a crosswalk, typically on existing street signs, so flags are available to pedestrians crossing in either direction.

    4. What is the difference between reflective and non-reflective flags?
    Both options use fluorescent orange flags for visibility. The reflective flags also have reflective strips sewn onto both sides.

    5. Can I order replacement flags without buying another starter set?
    Yes. See Me Flags® sells reflective and non-reflective replacement flags separately in sets of 12, 24, 50, and 100.
