It’s not stupid to step into a crosswalk though?

Without looking both ways, yes, it is.

It is if a car is coming at you 15 mph faster than the limit with no signs of slowing down, it's the city we live in, always assume the other person doesn't notice you

To be clear the driver going 15 mph is what we should be complaining about, not a person stepping into a crosswalk

The point is that it goes both ways, don't be a stupid driver and don't be a stupid pedestrian, or do whatever you want and get hit lol

The point is that it’s fucked up we scold a person for stepping into a crosswalk and throw our hands up at reckless drivers. Is that really how you want to live? There’s nothing funny about getting hit by a car.

Lol go do what you want in the crosswalks, I personally will be waiting till there isn't a car coming because I know my body will lose that possible collision

And you keep going on Reddit and telling everyone to submit to cars because they rule the world. So awesome.

I’ve seen people purposely step into the crosswalk as a car is speeding toward them. Obviously, the driver is wrong and the pedestrian is trying to prove a point, but at what cost?
