I’d say people that insist on using their cars to go to large urban downtown areas are the ones making the situation worse. It’s interesting that L.A. chooses to so egregiously punish good behavior (walking) while pretty much reinforcing bad behavior in favoring car culture. People will always jaywalk, just as drivers will always speed, run lights/signs, etc etc. but pedestrians feel less a need to do this when infrastructure, and policy making is more forward thinking and people-friendly.
