 Pedestrians, please stop scurrying across the street just because you see a driver waiting to turn. You have every right to be in the crosswalk and to walk at a pace that is comfortable for you. The driver can wait their turn. 
 @9248071f I hustle a little bit through crosswalks because I don’t want the driver to waste more gas and emit more CO than necessary.
That, and I don’t trust cars (human-driven or automated) to pay attention and not run me over.
