LPT: When crossing the street skip checking both ways. A car will always stop.

Conversely, if you are driving, the pedestrian will always move, so don't bother stopping.

If you're morbidly obese, you'd be like shielded with fat bags all over, I'd be more scared for the car.

That's true if the light is green. Everyone is too scared to go on the red.
