To me this is another case of being "right or dead right". Of course the pedestrian has the right of way, but what good is that to you if you are laying in a hospital bed being right. I can be backing out of my driveway and people will walk right behind me, backing out of a parking spot at Publix and people walk right behind me. If I see a car with lights on or moving the last thing I am going to do is to take a chance and walk behind them. But, then, I love life and want to live every year I've been given.
