Some people walking at school are really annoying

[babyblues]

It's so aggrevating at school when people go to cross the roads (and I am driving). They won't walk straight across, they walk at angles. Also most of them are texting on there phone at the same time. I even have people look at me and it seems like they are "testing" the law of pedestrian right of way. I don't know why people have to be assholes when crossing roads, leisurley walking across.

People do that where I live too. I hate when they look right at you while they saunter across the road. Some of them don't even look, like they could care less that you're even there. I still remember my drivers ed instructor telling us that even though as a pedestrian you have the right of way, it's not worth risking your life by challenging an auto mobile to assert that right. It isn't going to matter if you have the right of way or not if your ass gets run over.

What's funny is when that person that walked out in front of you, stops right in front of your car to look for traffic in the next lane. WTF? Why stop and look now? I love it when they are on the phone too...I just sit on the horn till they get the F%$@ out of my way.

No, my favorite is when they push that frickin button and then cross anyway before they get the signal. Then we all sit at the intersection because all the lights are red at the same time so they can cross but they're long gone. Oh, and then there are those people who have the signal to cross and they wait to walk until the last second and then the light changes to green right when they're in front of your car. One of these days, I'm going to have a stroke right in my car....

:hmmm: I would have a talk with one of the traffic engineers...around here when someone presses the button to cross, the traffic only stops in the lanes they want to cross.
