To clarify. When I came up the grade I had a line of cars to my left, a line of illegally parked and wanting to get moving cars to my right and a cross walk in front of me. I had two peds one car width from the school sidewalk (to my right) and one ped just entering the cross walk from the opposite side of the street (to my left). The ped I had to swerve was the one that was let off in the middle of on coming traffic (to my left) and darted into the road without a crosswalk.

Not proud of what I did, but I also did not want to get creamed. I am looking for a different route to take if I run afoul of the clock again. I do not remember the school being this bad last year.
