Agreed, and with the design of some of our roads, maybe its a good thing to discourage certain pedestrian crossings. It isn’t fair pedestrians may have to walk a significant extra distance to cross, but there are also some sections of road like curves and merge lanes that are more dangerous to cross illegally.
