Defensive walking. Same with defensive driving. We just need to be more attentive to our surroundings.

It isn't right it is this way but the fact is pedestrians need to assume as if every car is being operated by a blind or impaired person and their brakes just failed (but they don't even know it).

There's way too many drivers that are unsafe.

We absolutely need to walk defensively, it’s true. It would just be nice if defensive walking wasn’t as necessary here. Not every city is like this.

I agree, except defensive walking is the default. For me at least. I don’t know how others walk or drive, but defensive transport is always the default. Anything else is just a plus.
