[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Pedestrian safety requires eye contact with the driver. Nobody in DC makes eye contact that is why pedestrians have so many problems. https://www.psychologicalscience.org/news/motr/safe-crossings-the-power-of-eye-contact.html https://www.wsj.com/articles/the-key-to-crossing-the-street-safely-eye-contact-1427734205[/quote] AGAIN...how would eye contact have helped the OP who was deep within the crosswalk when a speeding driver ran the stop sign? [/quote] To add--today a lady at a 4 way stop made a complete stop but was never actually looking up. She had her eyes on her phone the entire time. I saw her so chose not to cross my dogs and me even though it was our turn. However--this is NOT the same situation that OP and others have detailed. SO maybe everybody should stop with the captain obvious "vigilant pedestrian" canard.[/quote]
