btw pedestrians can be fined for crossing red lights in germany (my mum got fined 5 euros the other day)....
apparently it's a massive thing because kids observing adults jaywalking will do it themselves and get hurt/killed. this guy i met in berlin said his friend jaywalked there without observing this cultural taboo and was shouted at by an old lady down the street screaming "CHILD MURDERER!"
