Crazy that on a shitty technicality, the driver did not break any rules...

The crosswalk with the flashing lights is neither marked or unmarked, and drivers are not required to slow down or yield right of way when yellow lights are flashing, only flashing red.

Like sure maybe you don't see lights flashing above you, but maybe pay attention at the road directly in front of you??

There's every excuse to take blame off drivers.

In America you can kill randoms with a gun or a car and that's fine.
