    How can you do that without banning right on red? The problem is cars never stop, regardless of walk signals.

    I’ve seen that in a few places, and it works where

    1. You ban right on red (one of the places I’ve seen it work is in Cambridge, MA, which bans right on red at many major intersections and is considering it city-wide)
    2. Sufficient number of pedestrians to make cars stop. You just don’t be the first person to step off the curb, and apparently only go out at busy times

      I believe you that you experience this but it’s simply not the case nation wide. I grew up without a car and walked/bussed for my entire 20s. Never had an issue, though I do make sure Imnsituationally aware no matter who has the right away.
