i couldnt agree more ref letting pedestrians cross. as it is the roads are choked. then there are hardly any proper footpaths for pedestrians. what few footpaths there are, are occupied by construction debris, rubbish and mad bikers trying to take shortcuts.
I prefer to stop and allow pedestrians to cross over because it is not going to significantly impact my time. but i notice every time I do that the fools behind honk at me till death! Im lucky I have that towhook at the back so generally these stupid BPO wagons and Indicas stop short of trying to nudge me from behind!
but frankly there is no patience or consideration left - we need to somehow revive these few things to make our world a better place. Quote:

I am a sucker for letting pedestrians cross at intersections. I do this very often, the only time I feel stupid is when the person doesn't understand that I am letting him/her cross! What I ensure is there is no vehicle tailgating me.
Any other such actions, or experiences? | |
