The far turn

I adapted quickly to the look right then left thing when crossing the street. It helps that they put it on the pavement most places.

The thing that gets me is what I call the far turn. Cars turning from the far lane into the lane close to you or turning from the close lane to the far. I guess it really isn't far but it does seem that way.

The times I've almost gotten wacked is corners where no one has to stop and the turn is from a far lane.

And this is not a pedestrian friendly city. If the cross isn't marked with white lines (they call them zebra - pronounced zeb-ra - lines). Also made famous by the Beatles album cover.
