Crosswalk Visibility Insurance

cloudballoon says...

What's so "seen" about carrying a (foam) brick to cross the road? That drivers would be afraid the pedestrian will throw the brick at them for not stopping and purposely run him/her/(pronoun) over?

Those fake bricks are probably germ incubators even for a short term. And I wouldn't be surprised assholes would just stick all kinds of gums, mucus and phlegm all over the bricks for "giggles" ... almost EXPECTED nowadays. And what about what's gonna happen if a pedestrian with the brick in case a close call? Is the "safety campaign" trying to legitimize throwing bricks at cars?

The whole idea is just problematic to me as a safety/social experiment.

Just be careful, look both ways before crossing and stop looking at the phone while crossing for a few seconds should do the trick.

Yes, we can argue that onus is on the drivers to avoid pedestrians getting hurt. But it's ALWAYS the pedestrians getting hurt/killed in accidents, rarely the other way around. I wouldn't leave MY life in other peoples hands whenever I cross a road, having the right of way or not.

Police video of semi speeding into cars and auto mall

cloudballoon says...

Early footage seems to show the truck driving on a really wide pedestrian sidewalk? Is the truck driver an incel? (ref. to incidents we had here in Toronto, Ontario in Canada)

It was a pedestrian. If you go frame by frame you will see him just before the crash

Who died? I hope the fleeing driver, not the passenger in the orange car.

Whittier Crash: 21 LASD Recruits Hit While Running In Road

Roads are for cars, sidewalks are for pedestrians. Sadly, I doubt the police will acknowledge their role in causing this by taking over roadways as if they owned them. Don’t run in the street, people.

Tesla driver loses control as car speeds down street

newtboy says...

Yeah…Elon doesn’t have enough problems right now, time for him to merge his car and his rocket companies and get his cars to become unguided missiles. Next step is Twitter integration to target non verified pedestrians. That will make $8 for verification seem worth it!

Holy shit!
Sometimes unbelievable acceleration and AI driven steering isn’t such a good thing. Yikes!

Dodge Viper Crashes During Street Race || ViralHog

? What guy on the bicycle? Am I blind? I only see the motorcycle that pulled up after the crash.

Still totally not cool, plenty of opportunities to kill or maim someone. He got lucky. Don’t race on crowded streets with traffic and pedestrians people. Find a farm road or abandoned airport.

The guy on the bicycle looked like another 20 feet and he was a casualty. No cool.

Is Your Car Safe From Supermaneuverable Air-Defense Fighters

Oops, my bad. I just focused in on the one minute mark where he said "step one is to stop before the line. Then make sure to yield to vehicles..." I falsely equated that to a stop sign in my brain, but who stops first and then checks for traffic? Seems he has it backwards. Check for traffic while approaching and only yield/stop if necessary.

I've had very little experience with different kinds of roundabouts. The ones i've used are very basic. I know there are more complex ones with multiple lanes, bike lanes, and pedestrian cross walks but never have i personally come acrossed one. Decades ago however i did cross, as a pedestrian, the roundabout at the Arc De Triomphe In Paris. I couldn't imagine navigating that thing in a car.

cloudballoon said:

There is no observable Stop sign in the video nor IRL at roundabouts though. It would be absurd and a huge faux pas if the animator added Stop signs in it. Yield and Stop signs shouldn't co-exist.

Bicycling Crowded Brooklyn Bridge With Loud Bike Car Horn

newtboy says...

All these people are walking and loitering in the freaking bike lane.

As planned, there would be no pedestrians on the left 1/2 of the path, but people can't follow the rules. I would want a truck air horn for my bike and a nice spiked leather jacket, make their ears and shoulders bleed if they want to walk on the bike path.

Payback says...

Without technology, humanity is ultimately pedestrian.

To be different is to go against 100,000s of years of evolution. It's only been a few generations since the fastest humans could go was dependent on how healthy your horse was.

This is the tribe I was born into (70’s child), and I am puzzled how pedestrian the majority of the world still remains 50 years later.

Was Johnny Depp Hurt By Ex-Wife Amber Heard?

Payback says...

I can't get over how utterly pedestrian and common their "fight" is.

Really seems an equally shit relationship rather than the life-threatening hell she's described it to be.

Omfg, I just listened far enough to realize they BOTH know this is being taped. This is them BOTH "behaving" themselves. Omg Johnny, run...
