    Yeah, bad street planning often means it’s impossible to see crosstraffic to turn unless you’re all the way into the crosswalk.

    If I’m walking and it happens, just walk behind their car. One of the most common scenarios for pedestrians to get hit is when people are turning right on red; They’re focused on watching the cross traffic, not looking at where their car is going. So they’ll see a gap and accelerate, only to hit a pedestrian.
