[quote=Anonymous]Our instinctive responses are fight, fight or freeze. I only cross the road when I have the real sign at marked crosswalk. When there is a car barreling towards me, I can't help it -- I freeze. So far cars have braked, and I have been able to find crossing the road. I have noticed that cars will brake rather than hit someone or something, but if you run as a pedestrian, cars are not likely to stop or show down and that actually leads to bring hit because the car misjudged the speed. I've seen four pedestrians got that way over a decade of walking in downtown dc[/quote]
