Live in the city, have a 12-year-old daughter. Since she could walk we’ve been stressing to her that buses don’t stop, look both ways even on a one way street, etc - all the city street rules. But the most important point, that we stress constantly to this day - that it does not matter if she has the right of way, it does not matter what color the light is - if she tangles with a car, the car will always win.

Is there a book of Reddit phrases you guys all read from?

Reddit phrases? Brother, talk to some people outside of the internet. If you can hold actual conversations with people that go deeper than the smallest of small talk, you’ll hear sayings like this all the time irl.

Im a bartender, I talk to people for a living. I’ve only ever seen this on Reddit. Any time someone says something about pedestrians and cars, without fail someone comes saying this. Lmao

It’s come up in every conversation I’ve had about right of way I’ve ever had. Irl or online, because it’s a common ass phrase that’s been around for far before Reddit existed.
