People talking in the street
People would be crazy to stand in the street and talk on Buena Vista or Morse, and probably would get a ticket if they did for jaywalking or obstructing traffic. Not sure how its legal, then, on a neighborhood street. Should be legal, but I've never seen any signs or read it anywhere. I'm sure carts and bicylists hit pedestrians occasionally in TV, but we don't see it in the paper. Do moving pedestrians have right of way over standing/idle pedestrians? Is there a difference (whether they are moving) if a vehicle hits them?
