My boss decided to jaywalk an otherwise empty street in downtown LA during a conference (not a big deal where we're from). When he got to the other side, a cruiser pulled up onto the sidewalk blocking his path, and the cop got out and berated him while writing him a ticket. Crazy and overzealous to say the least, but we still haven't let him live it down to this day.
- nitrogen 6y agoBefore corona I visited some colleagues in LA for a knowledge transfer, as they were handing over ownership of a whole bunch of infrastructure to me. As we were walking to lunch, I couldn't help noticing that they very clearly and insistently walked as far away from the street as they could. Very edge of the sidewalk away from the street. They warned me about cars never looking when they turn, etc. LA is not a pedestrian city.
