[quote=Anonymous]I’ve almost been hit 3 times as a pedestrian by cars making left turns but in nine of the occasions was it because the driver moved into the intersection to make the left. In two cases, it was because the drivers saw a basically open road and decided to accelerate into the turn so they didn’t lose the green—without noticing I was in the crosswalk. The other occasion was the lead car stopped to yield to me, and the person behind them was impatient they weren’t making the turn so swerved around them and accelerated. All three were very close near misses. In one of them, the fender actually touched my pant leg (wide leg pants!) as she slammed on the brakes. So definitely don’t go around a car stopped! [/quote]
