[quote=Anonymous]I have walked to and from work in DC since '94. I have the right to trot out into the crosswalk in front of on-coming traffic but have seen enough people hit by cars to make sure I make eye contact with anyone I am going to walk in front of. Even if they are stopped at a stop sign. I've had cars who were stopped start up and almost hit me because they are not paying any attention. When I drive which is rare - i am super careful to stop and allow any pedestrians milling around on the sidewalk the change to walk across but it's courteous if as a pedestrian you see a car waiting to expedite your walk and not wait until they are ready to go and then run out[/quote]
