Pedestrian 118 is just idiotic. I understand car accidents can happen, but a pedestrian??? That tells me you purposely ignore crosswalks or drive recklessly in slow speed areaa
I think they mean that drivers ignore crosswalks. I also first assumed they meant pedestrians ignore crosswalks, but in the context that doesn’t make any sense.
And yeah, I agree. Car accidents with fatal outcome are expected in areas with high speeds, but those areas shouldn’t be where pedestrians usually walk. This makes 25% of road fatalities being pedestrians seem quite insane.

you’re right. i should have read more carefully or i should have just stopped reading to go to sleep.
Some drivers not only ignore, but accelerate to pass before the cyclist or the pedestrian “claims” the crosswalk 🤷
is this a joke?

No? Do you think it’s a sign of excellent driving that pedestrians are getting killed?
