well-meaning legislator decided that pedestrians on a crosswalk should have the right-of-way over oncoming traffic, and he or she persuaded a majority of lawmakers to go along with this. At the stroke of a pen, common sense had a stroke.
Boy do I hear you!
Just try driving thru Lake Geneva, Wisconsin.
It is a resort town and when they passed that law what they have there now is people
purposely walking right in front of a car to make them stop. The out of town vacationer pedestrians have made it a game.
AND....they don't have to be in a marked cross walk either.
And the cops sit there handing out tickets to the DRIVERS who don't slam on their brakes to let these idiot pedestrians who walk across right in front of their vehicles. :R:R
