    it drives me insane when people argue that unprotected trafficants (translated from the swedish term because lazy) doing something wrong absolves drivers of all guilt, motherfucker the law very clearly states that it’s illegal to hurt people, context does not matter and if there is something you could have reasonably done to prevent or lessen the damage you are legally obliged to do it.

      No one, least of all me, is arguing the pedestrian doing something stupid absolves the driver. Ever heard of the Darwin Awards? When you’re dead, it doesn’t really matter who was right or wrong.
