In what situation would a car be wrong to yield to a pedestrian? I guess maybe certain cases of so-called “jaywalking”? On the other hand I see a lot of pedestrians wave cars and bikes through at crosswalks, which frustrates me just as much as cars waving me through when they have right-of-way. Pedestrians, you own the road! Don’t give motorists an inch more than the law requires!
When I’m on foot, I never break my stride when entering a crosswalk. It kinda freaks some drivers out. [For my own safety, I’m always ready to leap back if it becomes clear they’re going to fail to yield…]
