SlIgHtLyOpInIoNaTeD Posted August 26, 2005 Posted August 26, 2005 Why do people feel it necessary to walk as slow as possible across the road, when your barreling towards them at like 55 or 60 mph. This shit happens to me way to much. One day I'm going to pop one of them over the roof of my car! I guess it will not really do a lot for the others that do it because no matter how many people get hit by cars people continue to fuck with traffic. I've never done that and never will. I was always told by my parents(and thought this for myself)..."hmmm thare's a car coming, let me get the hell out of the way!" Most of the people who tend to walk slow through traffic look like they don't care to much about themselves let alone anyone else, so It doesn't surprise me a whole lot!

cynthiaa89 Posted August 26, 2005 Posted August 26, 2005 Unless the person is really old or handicapped or something it makes me really mad. I would love to see them go flying over the roof of my car but it's illegal and morally wrong to murder. Quote "Life's tough, but it's tougher when you're stupid."

tizz Posted August 26, 2005 Posted August 26, 2005 Well, at least within the designated walkways, it is the pedestrian that has ALL rights of way. As for jaywalking, well they don't have the right of way but hitiing them is a little mean don't ya think?

angie Posted August 27, 2005 Posted August 27, 2005 You know...I expect to see this in the South. It's a bit more slow-paced, relaxed...Doesn't bother me when I'm down there, it's part of the way of life. HOWEVER, in the good ol' blue-blooded NE, everyone here is always in a rush. Fast, go faster, let's move it...and yet when people walk across the street they take their sweet time. I personally always run like hell, even if there ISN'T anyone coming. I hate to get in people's ways, and I'd rather just get outta the road the way people drive around here. And it is the worst on college campuses. I usually end up swearing or yelling out the window (or both, depending on how bad my road rage is). It's common courtesy: get the fuck outta the way!!!

tonon Posted August 27, 2005 Posted August 27, 2005 im not in a rush, i work with these canadians who have energy like they are on crack though. they can get anoying after a while. Quote p1010226
8_BALL Posted August 27, 2005 Posted August 27, 2005 LOL... I guess if you people were the driver and I was the pedestrian, I would piss you off. I purposely walk slow just because of the simple fact that I do have the right of way at all times when I walk in the cross walk. Now when I Quote
angie Posted August 27, 2005 Posted August 27, 2005 You are an asshole. I hope you're running late for some REALLY important meeting, and a group of about 25 people decides to head into the crosswalk....staggered and walking at the pace of a turtle. It's pretty stupid to be a dickhead for no reason. Quote http://www.darwinawards.com/ http://www.snopes.com http://www.breakthechain.org STOP THE SPAM!! Click Me You Know You Want To
tizz Posted August 27, 2005 Posted August 27, 2005 When in an area where pedestrian traffic in heavy, you should be slowing down anyway. Do you peopl eget just as pissed when you are crossing in a cross walk and some ass near runs you down?

8_BALL Posted August 27, 2005 Posted August 27, 2005 You are an asshole. Thanks for agreeing with what I already confirmed. I hope you're running late for some REALLY important meeting, and a group of about 25 people decides to head into the crosswalk....staggered and walking at the pace of a turtle. If there is anything the Army has taught me, its to be 10 minutes prior to everything. If you are less than 10 minutes early for something, you're late. So as far as "running late" it doesn't happen. It's pretty stupid to be a dickhead for no reason. The world is full of dickheads. Why not contribute? Quote
