I too, neither think it's unfortunate, since it'd mean that the driver will likely to be in the wrong if they hit a peds thus they're generally a lots calmer around peds than the American counterpart (apart from cities like New York where peds seemed to have priority).
digs, since you know that peds often cross the road without looking, this little information you've gather mean that you can able to avoid them by taking the necessary manoverve (such as primary position, going slower than you usually do while overtaking vehicles etc.).
