What is the purpose of requiring detectable warning tiles?

Most of the slip and fall accidents go unreported, but this could be prevented with a black line warning sign used as a flooring. It is useful for high-traffic areas where slip and falls are common, such as schools and airports. Any time you find yourself i n a new place, whether it is inside or outside, you will feel the difference. The flooring that you are stepping on is different from your usual flooring and this difference will force you to think about the floorings in front of you. You will understand that you need to slow down and become more cautious before taking the next step. A pedestrian is texting while walking when accidentally takes a wrong turn towards a busy road. But becomes alert on approaching the road because of stepping on the detectable warning surface. The surface is different from the regular pavement and as soon as the pedestrian steps on this floor, he senses danger. He stops at once to look ahead How does the use of detectable tiles benefit the user? T
