Same, i live in a city with lots of bad drivers and i always make direct eye contact with the people who are supposed to be stopping (not to mention people blowing through the protected crosswalk with lights flashing)
The funny thing is that some drivers take offense to this because as soon as the solid red turns to flashing red they gun it past me, revving their engine as much/loudly as possible lol
A few years ago I read a story about a black teenager killed by a cop who was driving (fast) the wrong way down a 1-way residential street, about 25 mph limit, until T-boning. The cop was not charged, because he had lights on, while the teenager’s friend who was driving was arrested for driving with a suspended license.
Driving on the road in America means watching out for yourself because the rules will not actually protect you.
