Here in Seattle I hate driving downtown because of the pedestrians who don't follow the rules

One time I had a green light and some group decided to cross anyway and I had to stop in the middle of the downtown intersection. They took their sweet time and the light turns red and the walk signal comes on. I am still in the middle of the intersection so to not block traffic I tried to inch up but since the walk signal was on dozens of people were crossing so I couldn't go anywhere. Not only was I being honked at by cars who I was blocking. But many pedestrians surrounded my car and knocked on my window and slammed their fists on my car and cussed me out. One guy cussed me out so bad and I was just sitting there like a duck praying my car didn't get beat on too much.

frick Seattle and frick pedestrians who don't follow the rules.

Also in Seattle you have a lot of homeless/drunk/drug addict types who are mad at everyone and think since they are oppressed they can do whatever and not obey pedestrian traffic laws. They will cross the street when they have the red hand and the drivers have the right of way, stop traffic, and just stand in the crosswalk flipping off the drivers and cussing at them as they walk slowly.

Genius, in most states pedestrians have the ROW.

This is where I would have gotten beat the frick down. I would have let my mouth get me in trouble. I would have had to tell him something. Right now, it thinking logically I know it is the stupid thing to do, but there are some things that just sets something off. For me, its if someone would do some dumb shite like this. Its like all of a sudden I start thinking "this mother fricker is running his mouth like no one will do anything to him" then I would say something back then some stupid shite like. Try to run over him, but I know he could beat me up physically.
