- mistersquid 5y agoThis seems odd to me because a pedestrian is almost never going to be able to dodge oncoming even slow-moving traffic. Perhaps it’s about observing inattentive drivers before they present immediate danger or establishing eye contact? In any case, I stand corrected on the legality of pedestrian salmoning, though I’m not convinced of its advisability.

If you work the field at an AutoX course, you'll know that it is quite possible to dodge them. The chances of dodging a car when paying attention are substantially higher than if one is not.
