India’s Supreme Court has declared the right to walk on safe, demarcated footpaths a fundamental right, arguing that streets must prioritize pedestrians over motor vehicles and urging the government to create a legal framework to protect that right.

Cảnh báo: Nhiều tài xế vẫn “cướp” đường ở vạch kẻ, không nhường người đi bộ và gây nguy hiểm. Việc này không phải “không được dạy”, mà là cố tình vi phạm luật giao thông. Hãy luôn tuân thủ quy tắc, bảo vệ quyền đi bộ! #RoadSafety #TrafficLaw #PedestrianRights #AnToanGiaoThong #QuyenDiBo #LuatGiaoThong

A woman in a car driving into a grocery store parking lot in #Berkeley got so mad that my husband was walking across the lot on foot (and not going fast enough for her taste) that she honked at him and then deliberately grazed him with her passenger-side mirror.

He rushed after her and told her that her behavior was outrageous and illegal and she fired back that he had "no right" to be walking in the lot.

WTF?

I'm so sick of car assaults.
