Correct answer

  • ALos niños y las personas mayores.Children and older people.
Explanation

Children and older people are the pedestrians most at risk. Children are small, hard to see, impulsive and know little about the rules; older people see and hear less well, move more slowly and are more fragile, so they suffer more serious injuries if hit by a vehicle.
