Remembering when I returned from civilized Europe and thought I could cross the street like a normal person and got hit by a car

We get a special training where you cautiously step into the first lane, walk fast and do this half-run from the middle. 😆
When you wait at the pedestrian crossing alone and a car stops for you, you almost want to do a curtsy and tip your hat even if you don't wear any.

@CrazyMusicLover Allow me introduce you to south yurop:

@Elessar That's the proper workout! 👏😂

@CrazyMusicLover you don't know how many times I've thanked drivers for letting me pass, like I almost can't believe it 😂
Oop. I wasn't expecting the sentence to end so abruptly.

Were you hurt?

@HannibalAteMeOut The honk when at fault is a classic lmao
HannibalAteMeOut · 22-25, F
@Elessar it's used as a hello, a swear word, a catcall 🤔
Elessar · 26-30, M
@HannibalAteMeOut It's a gesture, not necessarily (solely) a hostile one. You're confused and what are you supposed to do? Honk, of course.🥴

I've been crossing streets my whole life but yeah, getting hit by a van made me scared asf for a while 👀 I'm STILL super aware when I cross roads.

It took me months before I tried crossing a road again & when I did I jumped like 6 feet when a car just casually slowed down beside me 😂
HannibalAteMeOut · 22-25, F
@ChiefJustWalks that's a strong shock there, I was just thinking what if the force was stronger and I fell or worse fell on the side of the road that other cars were passing by 😬
ChiefJustWalks · 26-30
@HannibalAteMeOut it's definitely possible. Or even falling underneath & getting ran over 😬

With me, the force made me just stick to the hood until she stopped then I fell off & rolled.
& Even though I still didn't realize what happened, I knew I needed to get out of the road before more cars showed up so I immediately got up & realized it was hard to stand. So I limped as fast as I could to get out the road (which was super slow actually) 😅
i'm always amazed when i see pedestrians hop out like they own the roadway 😹 i've nearly been hit myself and i've seen plenty of people run red lights so i'm always extra careful

@lovelywarpedlemon rules are only gor pedestrians, cars and especially motorcycles can do as they wish 😂
@HannibalAteMeOut btw i hope you weren't injured by the car 😱
HannibalAteMeOut · 22-25, F
@lovelywarpedlemon hahah no, fortunately!

I got hit by a vehicle once.
Totally my fault, I should have looked both ways before crossing the road.
It didn't help my cause that I had a couple of beers.
HannibalAteMeOut · 22-25, F
@Ferric67 hahah in my case he had a whole stop sign there
J walking is illegal, everywhere except California where its legal to be illegal.
@HannibalAteMeOut anarchy is no solution.
HannibalAteMeOut · 22-25, F
@checkoutanytime I believe it is though
@HannibalAteMeOut fixing the money situation, is the problem. We have leaders living a different life then the rest of us.

Our leaders have enough of our money, to try to colonize Mars, and we have to search for change in the couch for a Mars bar, is the problem.

HannibalAteMeOut · 22-25, F

Unlearn · 41-45, M
@HannibalAteMeOut Life is a collection of moments like these. One doesn't realise how or when they become memories...

We cross when there's no traffic
