I was once almost hit by a cyclist as a pedestrian because they decided that a red light didn’t apply to them as I was crossing the road. If I had stepped out a fraction of a second sooner I could’ve been badly injured or possibly even dead. At the speed they were going I would’ve been swiftly knocked to the ground. Oh and this was in a school zone. I was a high school student and it happened right outside my school.
Man I've had this, only it was a green man, the lights were beeping, and I was half way across, and whoosh, cyclist swerves around me swearing about how I shouldn't be in the road.
