In France you're supposed to use crosswalks but drivers are always responsible if an accident occurs. Most drivers stop to let pedestrian across on crosswalks.

Except in Paris where drivers are entirely unaware of the concept of crosswalks. So most crosswalks have dedicated traffic lights, and those that don't might as well not exist.

Welcome to Japan is one of our closest allies because we kidnapped their military nuked their asses are really close friends. Lots of cultural exchange happening cause of that.

Unfortunately it exists in Poland too.

It's a thing in Australia but only within a certain distance of a pedestrian crossing like in your example. I think that's pretty fair, there are some notorious crossings I've seen where jaywalkers regularly endanger themselves and fuck up the flow of traffic when there's a crossing literally right there. For most streets though...yeah it doesn't make sense imo

Jaywalking is known in every country with somewhat big streets.

You will get fined if you jaywalk across a highway in every country that has them.
