As one such pedestrian, this near-miss happens all the time, although half the time it's because drivers aren't even trying to look (e.g. a driver turning right will only be looking to their left while rolling through a stop). So I find A-pillar design very aggravating -- though not as aggravating as drivers who roll up to and through stop signs at a constant speed approximately equal to my running speed.
