Jaywalking in Manhattan, on the other hand is not done and you better not do it within eyesight of a police officer.
Seriously? I have stayed in Manhattan for couple years and done my share of jaywalking occasionally in clear sight of NYPD. May be I am just lucky but this just doesn't resonate with me.
- graeme 14y agoEveryone jaywalked when I was in Manhattan. It's a very pedestrian city.
- benblack86 14y agoI don't walk, I jaywalk!
- EricBurnett 14y agoSubstitute Seattle for Manhattan and the point stands.
- mathgladiator 14y agoI live in Seattle, and everyone jay-walks all the time. The hand which indicates stop is widely ignored.
- gizmo 14y agoI guess I'm wrong about that then. When I was there last everybody seemed to wait for the light to turn green. I'll edit the original post.
- badclient 14y agoMost people don't jaywalk for safety reasons, not fear of being ticketed.
- edge17 14y agoi've seen people get tickets in time square. that's about it though
