Section 91 states that a pedestrian ‘shall not proceed onto a roadway … into the path of any vehicle that is so close that it is impracticable for the driver of the vehicle to yield the right of way’
If cyclists are entitled twats for not wanting to stop to push a beg button at every crossing, would drivers be entitled twats for expecting the same thing? Or do drivers deserve better? How much whining would there be if roles were reversed?
Drivers already have to stop at red lights, stop signs, crosswalks, train crossings. Point out where a driver is saying they shouldn’t have to stop for those things? You think I don’t get pissed when I see the guy in front of me turn right on a no-red right? Or roll through a stop sign? Do I enjoy driving after dusk and seeing idiots in cars who can’t turn their headlights on? Or when it’s raining? Do you see me saying “well if only taxpayers would pay for more streetlights I wouldn’t have to remember to turn my lights on!”

I’m referring to this specific multi-use trail crossing. I’m sorry for not making that clear enough for you to understand at first glance.
I’m suggesting that drivers should slow or stop each time they pass this crossing, and you’re suggesting that cyclists should atop each time they pass this crossing.
