Yes, maybe they didn’t know cross rides were a thing, were fatigued and forgot, etc.
Give them a chance to not be an asshole first.
It does suck that you ur local cops don’t do their job. People won’t be aware or conscious that they’re fucking up unless they’re made aware of it. Hell, there are people that don’t care unless they suffer a personal consequence….

This is why people get killed, unfortunately. We had a teenager, riding through a cross ride, and was killed by a driver who didn’t stop behind the line late last year. I visited the spot, and even with a goddamn shrine set up under the stop sign, drivers were still not stopping. I was disappointed, and furious by this lack of care.
This is why as much as I like to drive my car fast, we need to reduce speed limits, get rid of left on red/right on red situations, and reduce the number of lanes to force alternatives. Not everyone wants to drive or is able to drive safely. Don’t force them to drive. Give them public transport
Seriously? Maybe they were from out of town and cross rides aren’t a thing where they are from. At least in the US, you are not required to take a written test to drive in another state.
Also, new traffic patterns are being introduced all the time. Perhaps cross rides weren’t a thing when they took their written or driving test.
In a world where you need to continually prove your knowledge of a given area to drive there, I would agree with you. But this is not that world.

That’s called “being incompetent and unworthy of having a driver’s license.”

It’s just an extra-wide crosswalk. Literally every driver is required to know what a goddamn crosswalk is!
Quit making car-brained excuses.
