      Crossing the street.

      Jaywalking is barely a crime and it’s bootlicking behavior to actually blame the kid imo. Let’s say it was a drunk driver instead of a cop (important to mention that what he was doing was waaaay against protocol), would you really be blaming the pedestrian?

      Fact is the cop was driving like if he was in Forza and caused the situation.

        Fun fact:

        “Jaywalking” as a crime was specifically invented to put the onus on pedestrians for pedestrian collisions.
