My Dangerous Game With Pedestrians
 

Semi road-rage post here

When I drive through the city in peak hour (which means peak hour for pedestrians too), there is one specific interesection where, when I have a green light, they are so anxious to cross they stand right up on the edge of the curb, and sometimes even on the actual street.

I am always in the lane next to the curb (I need to be to turn soon after), and it this annoys me, since the lanes here are narrow enough with people standing on one side of them, and it slows me down.

So I find myself playing this game, where I drive as close as I can to these people (but still on the road), and if I can get them to move (I check in my mirrors after I have passed) then I win. If they don't move, I lose. So far I haven't hit anyone

Is this standard, or do I just need to get the sand outta my vag?

How fast are you driving when you pass them?

One little misjudgement and you could be guilty of vehicular assault or homicide. Might wanna reconsider your game.

I've thought about doing this myself. I've never understood why pedestrians stand close to the intersection when cars are whizzing by. It's not like they are going to get across the street that much faster.

I think your game is fine as long as you are going slow enough that if you were to hit one you would only cause a few broken bones.

Well, it usually goes down that the light turns green, and by the time I'm at the other side of the inersection I'm goin about 10 maybe 20 mph

Although sometimes I catch a green light and I'm goin about 30 mph

If they're standing in the road, its their own damn fault if they get hit, the sidewalk is there for a reason.

What about Rainy Days? Does this affect there judgement to stand so close?

a better and safer game to play is to throw eggs at them or if you are a pussy, get a supersoaker.

Let me get this straight you are getting angry because people are standing to close to the road and you can potentially hit them on accident so in order to solve it you are now going to try to almost hit them on purpose. This is almost half as bad as the guy who was angry about people wasting water so he let his faucet run for an entire year.
