I don't know about you, but I try to swerve and avoid pedestrians if they walk out into the street. That can lead to me hitting other vehicles, losing control of the car, and all sorts of other badness.
Maybe I should just plough through them, and then sue for damage to my car.
- mikeash 15y agoI'd suggest braking rather than swerving. Don't know how much better that would be. In any case, you're right, it's possible for them to pose a danger, but it's still much less than that posed by drivers.
- 7952 15y agoThat might make sense if cars were not designed like armour. Kill the pedestrian or scratch your car?
- ori_b 15y agoThere was more than a hint of sarcasm in there. The point is that walking out on the road DOES pose a danger.
