    I think this is fine. If you get hit and killed by a distracted driver it may not be your fault but you’re still dead.

      Honestly, yeah. Navigating around drivers my general attitude is “I’m not willing to put my life in a stranger’s hands”

      My mom always told me when I was a kid to make eye contact with the driver before crossing the street. I’m always surprised when a pedestrian gives me so much trust.
