    Default U of C pedestrians are INSANE

    Man, I almost killed 3 today. My light was green for at least a minute, and 20ft from the intersection, 3 guys decided to cross against the light, and WITHOUT looking. Hard on the brakes, and the horn, and they had to jump to the other lane to avoid getting smacked. Lucky for them, nobody was in the other lane, or it would've been instant death.

    In the end, what do I get? A finger from all 3... how nice. I swear, kids in playground zones know pedestrian rules better than some of these U of C kids.

    I HATE driving at the U of C... everytime I have to go pick up friends/meet them there, I shudder... I hate it worse than driving downtown at lunchtime... at least downtown the pedestrians will somewhat follow the rules... I must admit though, it's pretty funny, at the University this place where everyone is supposed to be "smart" yet they're so dumb they don't even know how to safely and properly cross a street!!!

    ....Must've been MGMT students!


    j/k!!!!

    I wonder, if I nailed those punks today, who pays for the damage on my car? Pedestrians don't have PLPD insurance.

    You could sue them, and have they're wages garnished.

    If I actually DID hit them today, guaranteed they wouldn't be able to work. They'd be lucky if they could even talk again without sounding retarded.

    Man it better not be like that when I go to the UofC. If they don't even obey the rules as a pedestrian they will get hit one day

    What's crazy is, less than a month ago, 2 pedestrians got killed about a block away, on the same street. And these guys still don't have the common sense to obey crosswalk/traffic signals. Unbelievable.
