For the number of times I've almost been run over by bicyclists who can't be bothered to stop or even slow down for red lights when peds have the walk signal -- yeah I don't think so. There are definitely times when drivers are at fault because they're too busy playing on their cell phones or some other distraction, and those people need to be spending more time in jail. But there are also times when pedestrians are at fault. In many cases there is a serious lack of personal responsibility, people who expect everyone else to get out of their way rather than just using their brain. Those are the people I have no sympathy for. But whatever, if you think you can stop a moving car in 20 feet when someone walks out from behind a fence, more power to you.
