Okay, I get that. The timings can be frustrating, especially in certain interactions/areas if you are driving a car. But I walk to places as much as possible instead of driving, and the POV as a pedestrian is honestly scary ๐Ÿ˜ฌ๐Ÿ˜‚ People drive through red lights way more than any place I can think of (I've lived in a few different cities in the US). I can see how the shitty timings could encourage bad behavior, but I still take issue with people who blatantly ignore traffic laws that are in place for the safety of everyone.

Oh 100% and by no means to say cars need to take priority over pedestrian safety and definitely concur with my experiences of folks disregarding very red lights and still going.

This is just the result of people learning traffic laws arenโ€™t enforced. Take that as you will.
