Walk against the traffic grain for safety sake? I wonder if Texas cops give bicycling enthusiasts the same safe advice? since she was almost run over by wearing her hoodie and not seeing what was going on around her, and if you noticed on the video, she never knew the police was behind her and drifted in front of them as well while walking... everything the police said makes sense, she can see whats coming and won't get hit from behind... I couldnt hear but what I saw was her walking RIGHT NEXT to the curb, as opposed to in the street where cars should be driving, they stopped when she appeared(to me) to be CROSSING OVER(diagonally) the street but in any case,, not a battle worth fighting but every right to write about how she felt,,,, crossing the street? maybe, but most people LOOK when they do... she didn't even know the police was behind her |

A pedestrian may not walk along and on a roadway if an adjacent sidewalk is provided and is accessible to the pedestrian.
If a sidewalk is not provided, a pedestrian walking along and on a highway shall if possible walk on: (1) the left side of the roadway; or (2) the shoulder of the highway facing oncoming traffic. Tex. Transp. Code § 552.006 They could have given her a ticket. I live on a long street that doesn't have a sidewalk. The kids (of all races) walking home from school know better and they pay attention. One of the cops even told her that a truck had to pass her and she didn't even notice. |

LOL no ticket AND he tells her to commit another infraction by walking the other side |

They were nice and polite and worried about her safety since she obviously wasn't paying attention. Guess they should have let someone run over her dumb azz. Then again....if I say someone walking in the street (instead of the sidewalks) and flapping their arms, I would think they were drunk, high or thought they were a bird |
