I don’t get it. I usually cross Broadway in Schenectady by Proctors/Lotto Building on foot a couple times a day. I usually just keep walking unless there is an imminent threat of vehicles, or if I’m on a collision course with a traveling automobile. Most of the time this results in a simple course correction of diagonal travel to give the car time to pass without stopping and waiting. Then I see these cheesedicks who walk to the edge of the sidewalk, look back and forth nervously. Finally start to cross only to find that there’s a car leaving the light at a snails pace 200yds away and LEAP back to the safety of the curb in fear for their lives. :wtf Bitches just alter your trajectory, quit being pussies about it. ---

Walk in crosswalks and if anyone tries to hit you it’s free game to kick/punch/damage the front of their car. If you just run across the road and theres no crosswalk I believe cars have the right of way. But don’t quote me on that one. ---
