distracted walking is totally real. I see people all the time crossing streets with their noses buried in their phones, whether they have the light or not. And half the time when you stop for them at a crosswalk they stand there at the corner still looking at their phones.

Even before cell phones it was a thing. I personally witnessed a lethal incidence of it, when I was just a teenager. But smartphones have made it worse.
