    Why is it uncrossable? Traffic doesn’t drive too fast. Maybe its a bit busy and a bit wide for comfort, but crossable nontheless. Regardless, it’s stupid they don’t at least put a zebra crossing in.

      It’s five lanes and the speed limit is 50mph. I’m not crossing that.

      That’s insane. 50mph road with not even a middle island?

      Yeah I mean I COULD cross it, but it’s not something I’d want to do. I’d definitely never ever want my kids doing it.

        Isn’t that what “open carry” is for? (American problems require American solutions) 😅

      Even when ignoring the risk of crossing such a wide road, wouldn’t it be jaywalking and thus illegal anyways in the US?

        Jaywalking isn’t illegal in most places and in the places where it is illegal unless you’re causing a disturbance you’re usually just going to get a cop telling you to find a crosswalk, not arresting or fining you.
