The American road system baffles me for many reasons. The main one being:

🔴 Traffic light red:
You can turn right.
There will be no pedestrians crossing. You have right of way.

🟢 Traffic light green:
You can turn right.
There will be pedestrians crossing in front of you. You do not have right of way.

@mattgrayyes ooh ooh ooh

If you like LOTS OF LANES and a consistent motorway system that spans a huge continent then you've come to the right place

If you want to not die, I'm sorry but America is the wrong place

@mattgrayyes this is a huge issue and seems to be an even bigger issue in walkable areas / my current area. It would even be fine if the pedestrian signal was advanced by a few seconds so they had a head start before the cars were told to start, but it happens at the same time and so yes at many intersections they're literally hidden behind my A-pillar until I'm exposed as an asshole driver. I have to physically lean my head left and right to check that blind spot when downtown and I'm scared
