Of course, not simply crossing but specifically crossing at inappropriate place.
I think the UK should also ticket the jaywalkers.
- chrisseaton 7y agoThe idea is that by default everywhere is appropriate, because pedestrians are more vulnerable than cars.
- matz1 7y agoThen they should cross only in the designated place.
- chrisseaton 7y agoBut why? Why should the cars get the priority? Why do they get miles of designated place and the pedestrians only get 2m of it every now and again?
- Spivak 7y agoPedestrians always have the right of way and can be ticketed for failing to stop. However, just because you have the right of way doesn't mean you can't be ticketed for not crossing in the designated areas.
