This is OT but do others have this experience?
You're a pedestrian at an intersection and patiently waiting for the crosswalk signal to flash walk because you want to be safe and not jaywalk. As soon as it flashes walk, a "right turner" comes zooming in and proceeds to take their right. Either they abruptly stop when they finally notice me or they don't and just roll on through and I have to jump back on the sidewalk to avoid them. I try to intentionally wait in a position that is very visible to the right turners and it still happens.
I don't feel safe legally crossing the street. It sucks.
- crottypeter 10y agoI have only been to the USA once and I noticed this. It didn't help that I was in Florida in the late summer (very hot) so none of the locals expected there to be pedestrians!
