[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Coming from another culture, it is hard to understand how a lot of people are saying that pedestrians need to take responsibility for their own safety, always assume that cars have the right of way. Yet, in other contexts, when accidents arise, let's say a child gets sunburned at camp because a parent didn't provide sunscreen, then it's suing time and people can't seem to take responsibility for themselves anymore. Could somebody explain?[/quote] The assumption is that normal people go places by car, and everybody else needs to watch out (the polite version) or get the F out of my way (the not-polite version). That's the thinking underlying all of this.[/quote] So true. And that's pathetic on a so called "urban" website, where pedestrians are the norm. I guess it shows how many suburbanites are on this site. Please don't drive in the city, I beg you.[/quote]
