People could also wear something other than black clothes when they go outside at night.
Dude. For real. The number of jump scares I've had on a dark fuckin back road, and some bastard in all black seemingly materializes in front of me... Same thing with people who drove at dusk without lights on, MAKE YOURSELF VISIBLE
It is your responsibility as the operator of a car to see pedestrians even if they are wearing black
Sure is, but sometimes our brains don't work perfectly.
Then we should make safer roads for everyone with better designs and lower speeds
This is not particularly controversial.
Said the non car driver.
Oh, nice! Victim blaming!
yeah I just murder people based on the color of their clothes. if they didn't want to be murdered they wouldn't have dressed like that
Whew, I'm not alone.
Fuck you, that is obviously not what I said. You people should really learn how to read, instead of just making shit up and then believing I actually said it.
I read it just fine, that's your implication.The pedestrian is responsible for protecting themselves against the tyranny of the SUV. I guess if that's the world you want then vroom vroom mf
Everyone has a responsibility for their own safety. We should do what is reasonable to reduce harm and risk to others, but there is only so much that can be reasonable. If a person wears dark clothing, doesn't use crosswalks, doesn't check for cars etc at what point does their safety become their responsibility?
