close enough to me that I would say I am in danger

but I don’t, because I don’t want to live my life in fear, it’s their fucking obligation to stop and not maim me

you don't want to live your life in fear, so you will rather subject yourself to danger of being maimed? that is interesting strategy. who cares whose obligation it is when it is you who is going to be injured or worse?

    it was rhetorical question, motherfucker. when you are dead, it doesn't matter whose fault it was or if they should have stopped, you are still dead. ANd ThAT CAPslocK dIDN"T REalLy HelP!

    learn to read jfc it's not a matter of whose fault is it, it's that there is no safe way to cross anyway because drivers are fucking stupid

    then if I hesitate to walk out that just means it’ll confuse other drivers who stopped for me but then see me not going and take the opportunity to blow the stop anyways as soon as I start walking. I’m fucked either way.
