Let's get serious.
I'm done wasting electrons pointing out reality to someone who believes his "expectations" of traffic driving behavior and novel interpretation of some sort of universal traffic law requiring motorists to stop in the vicinity of a pedestrian no matter where the motorist (or the pedestrian) happen to be are a basis for anyone to safely cope with traffic.
