[B’ Spokes: This is what pedestrian safety looks like in Philadelphia, PA. Pennsylvania’s pedestrian fatality rate per 100,000 population is 1.14 and a ranking of 26 While Maryland’s pedestrian fatality rate per 100,000 population is 1.75 and a ranking of 8.

This should not be rocket science!]<\/em> `
