I'm the kinda guy who knows both ends of the spectrum: I have been and continue to be a pedestrian the majority of the time, but I've certainly spent lots of time behind the wheel of an automobile. <BR/><BR/>As a driver, I know that it's a pain in the ass when pedestrians cross the street against the light. It can frig up your entire drive, because there's another dozen or so lights you've got to get through and they're all timed. <BR/><BR/>I don't care if someone crosses the street against the light but gets some hustle into their step. I've been an aggressive pedestrian before, and I'm sure I will again soon. But to just lazily stroll across a street, against the light, and then glare at a driver like its someone else's problem, that's an arrogance I cannot tolerate. These are the same people, were the shoe on the other foot, they'd be hanging out their window dropping r's and f-bombs all over the place.Fornyahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15962200839327557745noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10992251.post-77290538862105633052007-08-27T02:16:00.000-04:002007-08-27T02:16:00.000-04:00so true! i was walking on Comm the other night at ...so true! i was walking on Comm the other night at about 10:00 p.m. and an elderly man with a cane, wearing all black was crossing the street when it said "don't walk." A car was going through the green light and literally had to slam on his breaks to avoid hitting the man. He left marks in the road that's how close it was. My friend and I stopped in shock realizing what almost happened. I wouldn't even cross Comm Ave when it said "don't walk" in daylight running!Susiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05519642773775411397noreply@blogger.com
