Drivers should have to stop before turning through a crosswalk with a "WALK" signal active

90. No, there is a need, because every day I cross streets and with walk signals, cars disobey

they often don't see me, though i'm visible.

the design is effed up, okay?

the design of intersections has turning vehicles get a green light when they are crossing a crosswalk. they have to see the pedestrian to realize they need to stop. it depends on them seeing while looking ahead, at the light, all those things while turning and not missing the pedestrian in the pillar of their car.

simple changes in signalling would do a lot to address this.

most drivers i encounter stop for signal lights. the problem is when they get the green and in a large city, there are lots of distractions and pedestrians aren't seen. now, for example, it's dark, when i cross the street, i'll have a walk signal and drivers will have a green, i depend on them to see me, with my back to them, while they are watching traffic, the light, looking for me, but it's a wide street, etc.

in the dark.

it's a bad design. why the hostility to change? is it because as a driver, you don't want to change anything you do, you just want it on others?
