Reports of a van driving into a crowd of people in Finsbury Park

Isn't it in the Highway Code that as soon as a pedestrian sets foot on the road, they do have right of way? I agree with The Clamp, drivers don't even stop for mums with prams or wheelchairs, or old folk anymore. The roads have gotten very rude.

Yes. you are totally right. Pedestrians have the right of way if they have stepped on the road first.

I like to be polite when I can as a driver except when I consider it unsafe to do so, I do get some very good drivers when I'm trying to cross a road in my wheelchair so they are not all bad.

So many cars now and so many rude drivers. When I'm on foot, if I'm waiting for ages to cross I wait for a car going slightly slower and using polite hand gestures and a look of intent they usually slow down enough and let me cross. Astonishing the amount of drivers who simply will not let anyone cross when it is safe to do so. Me me me.

Perhaps when they realise it's you, they speed up

I see many road rage incidents every day, often all of them are avoidable, just rude people
