That is what exactly happened to me in California. The law is if there is a pedestrian on standing on the curb at a crosswalk, they can step out into traffic, and the traffic has to stop. I had been in the state of California an entirety of 14 hours when this happened. Years later when I flew into SFO I noticed a sign hanging from the ceiling that said something to the effect "Since you are entering the State of California, you are responsible to know the laws of California". I laughed to myself, "Yeah, No Shit!"Sadly, I think many interpret that to mean they can cross anywhere and don’t even have to look, just step out and go.
as a driver I can surely respect a crosswalk, so should pedestrian.
