... or vastly more likely, none of those things.
Maybe they will get run over tomorrow, but that doesnt mean we ban all transport, or insist everyone who crosses the road wear a protective bubble.

No, but we do have pedestrian crossings, and teach the green cross code. and also other countries fine pedestrians for jaywalking

Indeed, but now let’s change it so that we drive on the right hand side of the road and instead of crossing on green we cross on red. All of a sudden what we’ve known previously is pretty much useless and we need time to update people with the changes. Until such time expect to see an increase in accidents and fatalities
