    Saying “Drivers can use their eyes and ears to help them avoid danger”

    DOES NOT MEAN

    Pedestrians, therefore, have no responsibility.

    It’s like you’re reading words, and conjuring all kinds of meaning that is not there.

    If you read my comments in this thread you will see me explicitly saying that it is a good idea for pedestrians to look both ways, several times in fact.

    My brother.

      Then we agree, as you’ll see that I also repeatedly state that drivers need to pay attention. I go so far as to say that ultimately, in an accident, the driver is at fault.
