By focusing on the most vulnerable road users, which is the pedestrian, an average of more than 500 accidents happen in each year that cause death.

Thus, this study attempt to identify the level of awareness for every respondent recorded and finding the most significant factor that effects the pedestrian safety awareness. 398 sampled was selected using convenience sampling and online questionnaire is used as research instrument for this study. Ordinal logistic regression model is used in identify the significant factors. From the study, the result shows that knowledge and behavior is the most significant factor effecting the awareness in this study.
