Flipping well this. The other day I was waiting to turn left at some lights, some girl was standing waiting to cross straight ahead. When the lights went for us, she started to walk, straight into my path as I came around the corner, ignoring the red man. I gave her a little toot on the horn to remind her I wait for my lights, she can wait for hers too. Being cute and Chinese doesn't excuse you (though it's a start)
Yesterday, waiting at different lights, several cars back from the stop line. The lights change, everyone starts to move, two teenage boys about 14 or 15 suddenly come FLYING through the intersection on their bicycles, not a care in the world, looking straight ahead.

Same with these "driving at 31mph KILLS YOUR CHILDREN" ads, why don't they teach kids not to walk out in front of cars?

That too. There was a thread somewhere (maybe here) where a child had been hit or something, oh it's terrible the man should be locked up and the key thrown away. I didn't get a good reaction when I wondered what the child was doing in the road in the first place.
