I think I'd take the bridge collapse. The law may be different in New York (from many other states), as I notice that many drivers in Manhattan couldn't care less if there are people in the crosswalk.....who in many states would have the right of way. As long as they determine they won't hit the pedestrian, they'll turn through the crosswalk after stopping at the red light...sometimes coming pretty close to a pedestrian. Sometimes, If a driver stops on the red and then waits until the person in the crosswalk passes in front of their car, someone behind that person will honk at them . Pedestrians will cross against a red light on a one way street (or even half of a two way street....Park Avenue, for example...if the next car coming is far enough away.
