Crossing the road, is it safe??


Question: Hi,
I live in Canada, I don't know if it just me who notice this, but I see this everyday. I live in Ottawa, Ontario and when Iam corssing the road, the vehicles also gets the green ligh to turn, but almost all of the drivers do not look out for the pedestrians and I have seen the vehecles turn just about a feet from my feet. The other thing is the parking lots near the shopping malls. The other day when I was crossing the parking lot to the store on the yellow line, a vehicle just passed near me with queit a speed. The sign clearly says 'watch out for pedestrians'.
What do you have to say about this issue?
Thanks in advance!
Answers: You seem over cautious. Take a risk! You're scared to cross the street? Look both ways and run if you must.
