Would be interesting to see how skewed the numbers are, but I guess it's encouraging nonetheless, too bad they can't/don't enforce the stuff as more of a routine.

I also wish I wouldn't have to read "Senior in hospital after being struck walking against a light late at night" stories that seem to be ever so popular now I jaywalk like everyone else does, but **** people keep your wits about you - you don't walk against a light at 10:30pm when you're 75 and traffic is evidently still flowing.

Nice going Wes!
