I am amazed at how many vehicles just zoom past a person waiting in the crosswalk. My wife and I always stop when someone is waiting and have had some disparaging remarks thrown our way from vehicles behind us.

There is a reason they put crosswalks in. Pedestrian safety. It attempts to keep people from just crossing anywhere and gives a controlled environment for both pedestrians and vehicles.
