I no longer cross at zebra crossings if a car is coming even if I have 'right of way', given how frequently drivers just blitz through. The other day I spoke to a lady in her 70s who was taking PT to the local shopping centre to do her exercise there, rather than walk around the neighbourhood, because a car clipped her walking frame when she was crossing with the lights and she cracked her skull.

Shit's fucked. I don't want to become roadkill. Carbrains have won.

There was a 90 year old who was smashed and killed walking down the road in a town nearby yesterday. I don't want to be old just so I can become roadkill.
