Some elderly lady turned in & when I look up just as the car was about 5 or 6 ft. from me I noticed she wasn't even looking straight ahead, she was gawking at the building or was concentrating on a parking place. Seriously I had to jump backward & her car ran over the tips of my shoes & this lady never batted an eye that I was even there. Well I didn't get PO'd about it because nobody (I didn't) get hurt, but now when I think about it I should of hit the top of her car when she was so close. This lady was so old that I thought, NO if I started srceaming at her she might of had a heart attack. So like THE DUDE says, beware of on coming cars at all times. Even I should of been watching for cars coming in from behind me, in that case I would of gotten hit. BE CAREFUL WALKERS!

THE DUDE, I hope you don't think my comment sounded like I was mad or yelling at you. You're exactly right, I guess to put it bluntly, some of the people driving cars don't react very quickly & don't seem to think they don't do any wrong. I was just really happy that I was paying attention enough to jump out of the way. THE DUDE, your comment was right & to the point, good job!
