Unnecessary. We've all done it in some capacity. And I think he's learned lol.

No it is necessary. Everyday on my way to school I have to avoid at least three jay walkers. They screw up traffic and piss me off.

Not all jaywalkers screw up traffic ._.

I really don't see how there's any arguing this. jaywalking is fucking retarded, and if he had gotten hit, the poor driver woulda been at fault, even if he didn't have enough time to stop for some idiot who jumped out in the road

Jaywalking isn't just crossing busy streets in a 'retarded' manner.

For instance, a road with fairly low volume which has absolutely no pedestrian crossings built into it can be a reasonable place to jaywalk, provided you aren't dumb about it. You just have to wait until you are sure there are no cars coming (and you need good visibility to do this). I used to do that myself to get to work, and I never once had even a slight problem.

The situation in the OP was not like this, however. It was a busy road so he unfortunately needed to find a good way around (but this can be a real pain in the ass).

I'm pretty sure near-death experience refers to when you are already on the brink of death (mortally injured) or even already pronounced dead. This would be more of a close shave

I have to cross a street (with no crosswalk) every day and I always have to resist the urge of crossing earlier during more dangerous traffic. Try to allow for a time buffer in case you fall! It's not worth getting F-vector'd.

What street was this? It sounds kind of like Lagimodiere. I wouldn't cross that blvd anywhere except at the few traffic lights.

Edit: Assuming you live in Wpg. Thought I read somewhere else that you do.

Dude, I had a near death experience too. When I was like 6 I was in a parking lot with my friends and I wanted to play pokemon or whatever so I acted like I was this cat pokemon and I was running crazy for about 5 minutes and then I trip and my head was less than 1 inch from getting ran over. Now I'm quite.
No no no no its not mine!

First Saturday birthday in like 10 years dude; I checked on wikipedia, although I forget what year was the last time and I'm too lazy to check.
