the group of pedestrian safety advocates explain that waving a red flag while crossing an intersection to get drivers’ attention “misses the point.”

“When drivers fail to yield for pedestrians, it’s not because they can’t see them, it’s because they don’t care.”

I saw someone put one of these up to get across the roads beneath the Granville island overpass and yeah, I kinda feel like a brick would have helped out when I used to go there.

in reply to @catball's post:

This reminds me of something from Fahrenheit 451, a detail that stuck with me more than most when I read it for school even though it wasn't, y'know, on one of those "what are the themes of the book" worksheets or whatever. Which is when the protagonist is about to get hit by a car and in a panic drops flat on the ground, and the novel notes that the driver swerves, not because they didn't want to hit him (they were intentionally aiming for him before) but because they thought running over a man lying on the ground was more likely to make the car flip than ramming him head-on.

idk I didn't think this is super relevant to the article but I was struck by the similarity of this "seeing pedestrians but just not caring" to that fictional moment of calculated malice that I've thought about for decades.
