That's just smart & safe, regardless of one's faith in their fellow humans. 🤌🏼

.... I guess it sounds logical when you put it this way.

Keep your head on a swivel, stay frosty, don't die. Pretty straightforward, but some simply can't be arsed. Don't be stupid, you deserve love.

Also, Satan is your friend.

Exactly. There are a lot of people who apply “rules are meant to be broken” to traffic laws

And many more that simply DGAF. Too many for me to not stay frosty at all times. 😶‍🌫️

Every time I cross any street.

I play a game when I drive. I'll look about the driver in front of me and think, what is the stupidest,most irrational traffic decision this person could make? Nutso bonkers NO ONE will do this maneuver in the next 5 minutes.

At some point, I stopped being surprised when a driver would do exactly that. After a lifetime of driving, my mind eventually would tell me, "this one will do what you are thinking. And it shouldn't even be possible according to the laws of physics. But they will try."
