A warmer commute to work today..Upper 80's. That is ok.. Under another thread we talked about traffic and how it makes for a rough commute. About two weeks ago I posted how traffic onto an on ramp of a freeway would not stop for me..
Today, was not a freeway..It was a regular urban intersection. Right turn on red means never having to stop..
I had the pedestrian ok to cross the street(crosswalk.). Think an RV would stop long enough for the pedestrians to clear. No it never gave me a chance to walk across the road. RV's are high. They particularily should see someone waiting at a cross walk.NO.
I gave up..Walked back and walked into the road and crossed the intersection when the traffic light turned green. Never know what is the safest way to cross an intersection.
