I clicked on this mainly bc I am supposed to be writing my post for Friday, and I don't want to. So I clicked here and now I am fully in the fabbit-hole. I curse you and Thank You. You are 100% right. Car owners probably could care less about pedestrians. I know what I speak of:
I was the PED in an Auto-PED accident. That's "Automobile-Pedestrian accident causing harm". Not hard to guess who got harmed. Not the vehicle, although I left my body impression on the bed of the truck.
I am ready to write now, you are amazing. I am so glad I read your stuff. Keep it up
I was very surprised when I bought my hosue to discover that, in my city, residents are responsible for clearing the sidewalk in front of the house of snow and ice. Grumbled a bit but dutifully bought a shovel and some salt. First snow really opened my eyes because my street is on a slope and the old and the young slip and crash on the way downhill. Not safe. Yes, I wish the city would do it but there are some compensations to doing our duty: as we clear the snow and ice, people stop to talk and to thank us.
