This is my world when walking across 5th street. You'd think that the Elbow Park types that rallied so hard for their unnecessary 1 km playground zone along elbow (which dropped the speed limit from a breakneck 40 to children-safe 30) would be more prepared for pedestrians to cross 5th. Instead, if they stop (not often) its a slamming on the breaks honking stop of pure un-believalbility as they stare at a person who dares cross 5th at an unmarked intersection.
