Re: Clear cut...

Mock not. I have seen almost the exact same accident.

Elderly and preoccupied and deaf person steps out straight in front of car. No chance whatsoever.

All this self righteous guff about 'stopping in the distance you can see' is meaningless if somewhere closer becomes occupied unexpectedly.

The only safe place for a car is in a garage.

Some risk is unavoidable, elsewhere.
