Speaking Of Distracted Walking

[rz]

I was driving down a street/highway recently where the speed limit was 45. We approached a light that was green, and had been for a while. Some guy was walking briskly from the side, and didn't even stop... he started to enter the crosswalk in front of the guy in front of me. Because I was situationally aware, I knew nobody was next to me, and I swerved into the left lane, and the guy in front of me had to slam on his brakes. Thankfully the pedestrian stopped, because even though the guy braked, he would have hit the pedestrian.

Of course, the pedestrian started screaming at the driver... It's times like this I'm glad I have a dashcam.
