🚶‍♂️ Episode 11: Pedestrians – Navigating Walking Traffic and Crowd Chaos

From Spring Break beach towns to packed theme parks, pedestrian traffic can be just as unpredictable—and frustrating—as vehicle traffic. In this episode of Mastering the Commute, Randy Keith breaks down how walking crowds create their own version of congestion, bottlenecks, and gridlock.

Learn how to anticipate human behavior on sidewalks, crosswalks, and parking lots, and discover how pedestrian movement can influence car traffic—especially in tourist hotspots or event zones. Whether you’re driving near crowds or navigating them on foot, these tips will help you stay safe, calm, and in control.

🎡 How to handle foot traffic in high-volume zones (theme parks, city centers, events)
