You sure about that? Many of the close calls I’ve had as both a pedestrian and a cyclist, the car driver seems pretty sure it was my fault.
In the US, non-drivers are a second thought at best, but probably a nuisance
For example, crossing the street with all reds, cars stopped all directions, walk light on, in the crosswalk. I didn’t actually hear what the driver who almost hit me yelled but probably something like “get out of the road during bmw priority time”. (Pretty sure she turned left because “already in the intersection” bs that some people use to run red lights - we definitely need a crackdown on people who enter the instersection after the light changes “it was yellow, bro” despite it not being close )
Of course the driver of the vehicle is going to say that. Otherwise they would have to admit they fucked up.
That's not a comparable situation though to what I'm talking about. Your example is about the driver of the vehicle in question, not someone reading about an event later that wasn't involved. To an uninvolved third party, they're not going to say that a pedestrian is at fault most of the time when it's just a car versus pedestrian. They're going to assume the driver of the death mobile was the issue.
