Just last spring (i cant remember what day) driving home (Hamilton) from work approx 5pm. busy street and im stopped while waiting to make a left turn (no traffic lights). Just as there is an opening in oncoming traffic and i just begin to make my turn, two little kids (4-6yrs) with tricycles start making a dash across the road right in front of me. I stop while they're struggling to get accross and i notice a car coming up on my passenger side. I start honking at the kids to get their attention to stop, but they just keep on going. I am driving a truck and there is no way the kids or the oncoming car will see each other... I have no way of signaling the oncoming car to stop.... so at the last second i turn to into the right lane and the car stops within a few inches from me, the guy and his wife inside are screaming, honking etc.... then he sees the two kids and realized what i did. the guy got out of his car holding his head saying "oh my god" over and over. If i made the left turn. the kids would have been dead. the parents of the kids weren't around.

WOW you did a very honourable thing...

Congratulations on being a hero. (and im not being sarcastic)

You should have told the kids to stop playing near the highway & to go start selling drugs. Problem solved.

you were one once!

sad to hear about this though. However many parents have no clue what their kids are up to.

im all for kids doing some learning for themselves, and not being overly protective lol health and saftey overload, but thats too much freedom.

Originally posted by Jayx1 the worst part is if u hit them it would be YOUR fault... that part of the law really needs to be changed. It gives pedestrians the balls to take on 2 tonnes of steel and im sick of it.

Actually... there are laws that protect the driver more so than pedestrians when it involves pedestrian misuse of lanes/freeways/hwys & biwys. However, there is a new law that they want to pass that will give pedestrians more rights..and protection over drivers.

For instance, whenever a pedestrian gets hit.. while j-walking..or being somewhere on the road where there's no designated section for pedestrians to be... the driver will get off (being that they don't have any traces of Alcohol, suspended license, going the speed limit, etc..) basically..if they're driving according to the law, and a pedestrian pops out of nowhere..into a section of the rd where they shouldn't be, the driver is not at fault. Pedestrians do have the right of way at mark/designated zones, and it's always the driver's responsibility to watch out and give them the right of way.

I'd have called the cops to have those kids picked up. No one needs the trauma & guilt related to an accident.
