My street has many of these pedestrian walkways that give off flashing yellow lights when someone is crossing, in addition to the regular intersection crossings, and still people jaywalk! Even when the walkway is just a few feet away from them!!! I've had so many close calls, especially with bicyclists attempting to cross the street.
I had to slam on breaks the other night to avoid some jackass who was jaywalking while talking on his cell phone. He came out from between two parked vans on the curb, where he was impossible to see until he strolled into the middle of the road without even looking. There was a crosswalk 10 feet away.
