The neighborhoods in which I now reside in CA and NM both have sidewalks for pedestrians, crosswalks, stop signs and stoplights. In California drivers stop for pedestrians (or are supposed to). In New Mexico being a pedestrian can be dangerous. I have to remember where I am. In CA rolling stops generally OK but be sure to stop for pedestrians who most of the time seem not to even bother to look before they cross! No CA (rolling) stops in NM and cars have right of way, or are driven like they do.
