People just wander into the street around journal sq. When I moved downtown like 8 years ago people used to do the same thing, in the last few years it became less common. I forgot how bad the jaywalking can be in JC until I moved up by Lincoln Park a few months ago.
Why do people try to jaywalking on JFK when there are cars coming in both directions? It is absolutely mind blowing!

Another JC pedestrian playing a morbid game of chicken with traffic? Go to Hospital, do not pass GO, DO NOT COLLECT $200.

Remember you have this little arm of the Blvd ending & Bergen Ave beginning with Sip intersecting. It's wide, busy & a very good spot for an accident looking for its place to happen.

".....The driver of the vehicle said he did not see the pedestrian because he was not in the crosswalk. A witness at the scene said the driver had the green light and that the pedestrian did not obey the walk signal, the report said. ....." How can you say you put the blame on both when a witness made a statement that the driver had the green & the pedestrian not only did not obey the signal but was not in the crosswalk. Pretty stupid thing to do especially at such a busy intersection. Just this past week I saw a nitwit, on a bicycle, helmet on, riding up th middle of Pavonia Ave. right next to the bus I was on. He was headed east & it was about 8am in the morning. Another dope.

It's whay they call it "no-fault" insurance. I never witness these accidents I always seem to read about them after the fact. I put the blame on both until proven other wise.

This sounds like what we were speaking about in another thread-the driver had the green arrow, the pedestrian ignored the signal and crossed in front of the turning car.

A pedestrian was struck on the corner of Sip Avenue and Kennedy Boulevard on Friday morning, a police report said. Officers responded to the intersection just after 11 a.m. to a pedestrian who said he was hit by a vehicle, police said. Story
