The notion that stopping is optional is deeply ingrained in NYC drivers. This creates awkward situations. One time when I was here, a car at maybe a little closer than halfway down the block was approaching. As I crossed, the driver kept going, honked at me, and passed through a few inches behind me. Because I never want to go through that again, my best course of action is to stand at the corner and wait. If the driver does come to a complete stop, then my time and the time of everyone in the vehicle has been wasted as they wait for me to cross. If the driver doesn't stop, then even more of my time is wasted waiting for him to clear the intersection. These things aren't supposed to be arbitrary. |
