link hereI hate it when I am in a car waiting for a red light to change and a pedestrian will be trying to use the crossing just as the lights are about to change and will end up standing in front of my car on the crossing when the lights change to green.
It's so predicatable that I can mentally estimate when the lights are about to change and look for the approching trouble. Sure enough, when I guess I have about twenty seconds to wait, I look left and right for the problem pedestrian and I can usually pick who it will be. Some idiot, wandering along with a blank look on their face who will get to the crossing, notice that the lights my way are red and as soon as they put their foot on the crossing - bang, the lights change and there you have it. Yet another fool standing in front of my car when the lights change.
The crossing sign has long ago gone to the 'wait' signal. They can see the green light for traffic in the other direction has gone to orange. It is obvious the lights are about to change and yet there will be someone in front of my car every bloody time!
I feel like running them over and removing them from the gene pool. We don't need people like that breeding.
