[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Interesting to read the responses.

This happened to me recently. The car going straight stopped and honked at me and I gestured toward the pedestrian walking [b]nonchalantly[/b] and illegally in the crosswalk.

The problem is that I only have a few seconds to turn left at this intersection during the morning commute: there is no green arrow, cars are coming thick and heavy even when the lights turns orange, so when I have a small window, I have to take it. The cars behind me waiting to turn left like me all start to honk anytime they perceive that I (or another car) take too much time to turn, because they'll be stuck waiting an extra light cycle, or several.

Wretched traffic.

np  I hate the judgement in your use of the word "nonchalantly"  Are you ever a pedestrian?  They are constantly being threatened on the road and the sidewalk and they have every right to walk the way they want across the street.  They should not have to run because you need to make a left.  Go walk around more and gain some sympathy!  Not everyone is fit and healthy.  Some are old and disabled.  Give us a break with your judgement.[/quote]
