Is it just me, or does anyone else also nearly get run over every time you try to get to the other side at the zebra crossing by HOP station?

It doesn't seem to bother most drivers that I'm already half way onto the road - they still don't stop, often don't even slow down. Occasionally I get a smug grin. I've seen a lady with 2 children waiting there patiently for several minutes until finally, someone decided to stop.

Yes I'm also a motorist, and yes I am in a hurry most of the time, but there is no excuse for not stopping. Perhaps it has something to do with fines being much lower than in other countries, or possibly low awareness. No idea. Don't care to hear the excuses. Rant over.
