      Obviously cars are more dangerous than human bodies. We all acknowledge that.

      The point is the space is already designated for cars. That should change, sure, but for today, that’s how it is.

      So a human on the proverbial train tracks is the one in danger. It’s not a safety issue for the car, but the person. Which was my point that you are trying to dodge.

      Also not sure what the ma’am was for, were you suggesting something?

        I’m not dodging your point, I’m rejecting it. It’s victim blaming. I’m sorry you can’t see past your nose, I’m gonna stop replying

          Probably best as you closed your last with a potentially gendered insult and didn’t clarify.

          Back on point: it’s not victim blaming when someone uses an existing system definitively wrong. If you sunbathe on a train track and get run over, you are the only one to blame.

          A more interesting topic for this community would be how to remap the traditional US suburb to establish more safe space for pedestrians, specifically how sidewalks out front of existing properties could take up some of the pavement, with traffic calming measures, and dedicated bike lanes.
