There are crosswalk and bike laws, but if you were killed by a car there’d be almost no consequences for the driver. Don’t trust any car at a crosswalk and be responsible for your own safety. Take it one lane at a time and make sure the car in that lane is stopped, or at least sees you for sure and you can tell the car is stopping and not getting ready to turn or something like that. Eye contact with the driver.

As an additional precaution, authorities also recommend bringing a brick no less than 1kg in mass to show to drivers while crossing.
Oh for sure. I realize I’m responsible for my own safety on the road, which is why me and my dog are still alive. Doesn’t mean it doesn’t piss me off.
