You’re also not allowed to cross the street outside of a crosswalk
I don’t know if you’re kidding, but that would be a very weird law.
It's called jaywalking - illegal in Australian cities actually.
Illegal in the USA, too. It is a rarely enforced law.
This is so weird to me. In Belgium, if there is no crosswalk in 20meters, you can cross (and cars a supposed to stop to let you go).
What do you do if there is non ? You take your car to cross the street ? Or everything is well done and you have a crosswalk every few meters on every road ?
Oh, we don't walk. We drive everywhere, even if our destination is in the same neighborhood.
In the US it’s only illegal if there is a crosswalk and you don’t use it. If there is no crosswalk, then it’s not jaywalking.
