    Imagine if someone discovered “car culture” for the first time and was expecting to walk outside where people were trying to travel in their vehicles

    #TrevorNoah might be today years old when he discovered the double standards of #carculture

    “Looking behind you” is exactly “how looking works”, when situational awareness is an expectation before walking in the middle of a road …

    … Jaywalking?

  16. auch 2025 das gleiche Bild auf der Fahrradmesse #CyclingWorld.
    Irgendwo im Eck steht wieder ein Polizei-Auto, diesmal allerdings offenbar ohne Personal. Dafür ein Schild mit Bekleidungstipps ("Prävention", na klar) und #Jaywalking Hinweis.
    Typisch Polizei - sie können und wollen ganz offensichtlich nur reines #Victimblaming. :-\

  21. Have you ever wondered why #jaywalking is a #crime?

    Jaywalking is a pedestrian interfering with #car #traffic. Outside. In the general world in which everyone mobile should have the right to move freely.

    The #automobile #industry lobbied invested politicians to make #pedestrians criminals for going from A to B in the late 1910s (initially, cars & walkers were meant to co-exist on the #road).

    I can't wait to see the lobbying by the #autonomous car industry concerning walkers & #cyclists...
