It’s sad that the driver of the vehicle had plans that were apparently more important than someone’s life. Did you even slow down afterwards, are you the person that phone it in? THIS MORNING, what!?! Find your conscience last night when you couldn’t sleep?

There is a blue tarp tent in the background of that photo. I can see how this went down. That’s a rough game of frogger someone was playing to crawl into their bramble pile each night. When that light turns green at V street its like a Nascar start. Not victim blaming here so sheath your swords.

NASCAR has a rolling start… Oh, 5th and v. , there is a rolling start there too. You are right, people do rolling stops waiting for the green light there all the time. Rolling thru the crosswalk to get a jump on the competition, especially in the far right lane. RIP sir.

They may want to consider adding a reflective coating to the crosswalks, flags on the stop signs, more lights and some yield to pedestrian signs; wouldn’t cost anything.

Rip.
