Get RID of them.

Then who next? The messenger look-a-likes? Then the delivery guys? Then the commuting Freds and Wilmas? Then the poor?

If everybody just LOOKED up from their iPhones and payed attention behind the wheel, and on foot - regardless of right of way - this problem becomes smaller than it already is. I can't even believe that a couple of peds one way or the other is even news worthy as they all (in my town) seem to be on a suicide mission anyway.
