For one I think is the dumbest rule in the book. For one it is easy for pedistrians to see a car coming. It is easier for a pedistrian to stop short and avoid an accident then a car. Yet even when it is the pedistrians fault, we always get the backlash. It is just bull when it comes to some of the rules that the enforce. to me this is top of the list. I mean why cant pedistrians wait to cross a damn street at a light or stop sign or even when there are no cars coming. I mean most crosswalks are in a major road or intersection. Like in Ridgewood, on the main strip there are at every ****ing corner, and during the day it can get real busy and you waiting there ofr all these damn people to cross. To me it is dumb. It is just giving the pedistrians the retard card. This rule entitles them to be careless and uncaring what the outcome is. Common Sense have left the building on this one.
to add have you EVER EVER seen a pedistrians get a jaywalking ticket, Nope never but us motorists always get the ticket for not yeilding.
