Boomers are the worst ones for it though, but that means they’re guilty of hypocritical double standards…
we have some newer crossings that shine a bright red/green light onto the ground in front of the crossing, people refusing to look up from their phones is unlikely to change and at least this way they won’t walk into traffic, plus presumably it’s actually moreso for general accessibility than phone users specifically :P
I almost ran over a phone zombie that was just in the middle of the road and didn’t even hear or see me, just standing still looking down in his phone until i honked
thats really only a problem with older people. younger generations are very capable of navigating AND looking at their phone at the same time. id know, i have been doing this since i was like 16, and have only ever run into a single streetpost those 4 years
Yeah, but how many times have you run into that streetpost?
i mean there was a reason it was removed…
jokes aside, one singular time
I’m just kind of surprised how many people just look straight ahead, and don’t even glance at the 4000lb thing barreling down at them.
Too many people trust that drivers are going to stop. And drivers are terrible.
Nah, I just have a death wish.
