Nobody should have built an intersection anywhere that big, then. But such behaviors are totally infuriating in places where there are many pedestrians, for example all of the stations on the SF Muni's T-Third line require passengers to push the button to cross the street after disembarking at center platforms. These crossings are not far (only half of a moderately wide street) but they don't have a pedestrian walk phase by default. If you haven't pushed the button you get to just stand there for another cycle. Example: https://www.google.com/maps/@37.790723,-122.390108,3a,75y,92.34h,87.25t/data=!3m4!1e1!3m2!1sSh6VN2cAVHyHpohWFYG10g!2e0 https://www.google.com/maps/@37.790723,-122.390108,3a,75y,92... As you can see, the street-view car has captured a brilliant scene. Traffic is jammed. Many pedestrians are waiting to cross. The guy in the Mini is either going to run the light or stop in the crosswalk. The person in the white minivan has somehow managed to drive up the street car tracks. And for the topping, someone has blocked the bike lane with a portable sign.
