Even if she would have crossed illegally! Drivers have to be prepared to handle situations where others violate rules! If you presume that everybody around you follows the rules, you make very dangerous assumptions: 1. that they perceive the situation in the same way you do 2. that their interpretation and application of the rules to the current situation is the same as yours 3. that they are currently able to control their body and vehicle sufficiently to follow the rules 4.
