Have you notice how the general opinion is that people getting hit by cars somehow deserved it? My best friend was hit by a text-and-drive kindof woman. He was an athlete and now he can't walk more than a few hundred meters.

Roads are meant for vehicles. When you cross one, the onus is on BOTH parties to pay attention. This is why in many cases, BOTH parties are fined in a collision. And for the record:
Suicide is also illegal.
My dude, pedestrians get killed by cars while they wait at bus stops. Or while using a crosswalk when they have the right of way.
Suggesting that people should jump out of the way because they have an onus to pay attention from unskilled or negligent motorists seems like victim blaming.
Suicide is illegal? lmao what an idiotic law is that?
Roads are meant for everybody. Thanks for proving our point that vroemers think they're entitled to polluting they way around. Disgusting people.
Ahhh…. You’re one of those people. Going to block you now. No time for that nonsense.
Feeling's mutual buddy. I don't know why I waste my time trying to be civil to polluters.
Roads are meant for people, not your pathetic stupid death machine. Ban them
ROFL!
