I live on a busy street but I cross at clearly marked lights with a button that must be pushed for me to get a walk signal. I then get 20 seconds to cross a very wide road (and I walk with a cane). I lose at least 3 seconds waiting for the cars who have just run the red to clear the intersection - then before I step off I have to make sure that there is no one on a bike running the red light (and I've lost track of the number of times I've been sworn at by one of them because I actually expected them to obey the rules of the road) - I'm lucky if the cars who want to make a left from the cross street (your right) let me cross without illegally passing in front of me - or - beeping their horn at me to get a move on - I use a cane remember. You never even have to make these things up.

Hubby in passenger seat, I was so pleased he witnessed the event as he looks at me sometimes as if I have made my miraculous escapes from other people's bad driving up!Janethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16147299200960914730noreply@blogger.com
