Agreed. So many people try to rush and do the pittsburgh leftas soon as the light turns green without looking for pedestrians. I had to learn to not just look both ways, but backwards and forwards too to avoid getting hit when crossing the street.

>The Pittsburgh left is a colloquial term for the driving practice of the first left-turning vehicle taking precedence over vehicles going straight through an intersection, associated with the Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, area. In other locales, the practice is also referred to as a Boston left or New York left. It is a potentially illegal and controversial practice.
