Added my usual Jay-walking = arrest on sight law and got pulled to a sit. Mod told me to specify, if J-walking = illegal, I must write "you must use crosswalks" Told him the definition of Jay walking literally means not using a cross-walk "Jaywalking occurs when a pedestrian walks in or crosses a roadway that has traffic, other than at a suitable crossing point" Wikipedia definition, almost every single definition found on google is similar. "but you have to" Told him that isn't anywhere in the rules and it's just something some people do "There are rules that aren't written down" So how about some discussion on this one. 1. Is this Jaywalking thing an arbitrary rule and 2. Why are there magic rules that aren't important enough to get written down?
