What I was pointing out is that distraction is the problem. Walking on a street and operating a vehicle are both potentially dangerous tasks, and people need to be vigilant looking out for others and themselves. If you're going to cross the road -jaywalking or not-, you should look both ways. You can't assume that a driver is going to see you, just as a driver can't assume that you aren't going to hop out in front of them, right or wrong as you feel that may be.
- stefan_ 7y agoThis is 1900s rhetoric. Putting up a poster in the 737 cabin to "watch out for MCAS". It's now 2019. We're smarter. We know how to engineer streets to not embarrass ourselves further with meaningless "appeals to everyone to watch out".
- tanseydavid 7y agoCity streets are dangerous -- this is a fact. Can you provide a example of these 'engineered streets' that you are talking about? I truly don't what you mean here.
