What are people’s thoughts on zebra crossing? I’ll slow and generally roll over once the ped has passed. I had one today where I came up to a crossing, people were crossing from both directions. As they crossed over in the middle and a gap presented itself I rolled over. However there was a couple of peds approaching the crossing on one side. I think the bloke saw and decided he would diagonally enter the zebra crossing, so stepped into the road not the zebra, aiming for me and saying ‘no no no no’. I cycled past him and said ‘you weren’t even on it you fucking prick’ and carried on.
I am respectful of zebra crossing, however I will roll over them if they are clear even if a ped is still on them.
