A black mom was trying to cross the street from a bus stop, because the nearest crosswalk was almost a mile away. A driver hits her child and she gets blamed for “jay walking”. Just an insanely evil country.

    Still, I thought it was legal to cross if the nearest crosswalk was more than a block away. I’m sure it’s a "depends on the state thing…still bullshit though

        In the US early in the auto age it became a crime…like loitering, only enforced when convenient.

        If you dislike that you’ll reeeally hate how many times bikers get blamed for getting run over…
