| Comment | "The pavement layout for pedestrians makes you barely realise you’re crossing a road."
That's sorta the point. It's meant to be a continuous footway. It's very common in the Netherlands and other European countries. It's only here that pedestrians have to stop for cars' right of way in nearly all situations, and not vice versa.
Cars approaching from side streets don't have the right of way. Pedestrians going up/down/straight along the main street do. These are meant to reflect that.
The onus is on the car driver entering from a side street to give way until it's clear. |
