[quote=Anonymous]I don’t bike on the street because I think it is dangerous but I am a frequent pedestrian.

I see this a lot when I am walking. You have to be a smart biker and pedestrian and not assume the cars see you and will stop. You have to confirm that they see you and are stopping before you go. Maybe the driver of the car is technically in the wrong for not stopping at a crosswalk but it’s better for you not to be injured!!

When walking - even when I have the right of way with a walk sign, I often see cars want to turn right on red. They look at the cars coming to their left but you need to confirm that they also see you crossing to their right before crossing.

Same if you’re walking / running on a street and you want to go across a street to the other side. Make sure if a car could turn left or right onto that street that they see you’re crossing and that you don’t both end up in the intersection at the same time.

Those are the two i see most frequently. I will think if I can think of any others. [/quote]
