"um but the right of way-" listen, yes. you SHOULD be able to cross the road. cars should stop for you. you are correct. but that doesn't make it not extremely fucking dangerous to dart into oncoming traffic
this is less of a "the road is for cars only and you have no right to be there" thing and more of a "holy shit you are going to get yourself flattened by an F150 if you try to do that. please don't." thing
to add to this month old post since it's getting notes again, when i was 16 and taking drivers ed my teacher beat into our skulls that we should always assume that every other driver has no fucking idea what they're doing. that's an attitude that i think pedestrians should adopt as well. never ever assume that drivers are familiar with or care about traffic laws. you can be 100% in the right and still get mowed over, it happens on a literal daily basis.
