A black mom was trying to cross the street from a bus stop, because the nearest crosswalk was almost a mile away. A driver hits her child and she gets blamed for “jay walking”. Just an insanely evil country.

    Here in Finland it’s legal to cross the road if the closest crosswalk is further than 50 metres (164 feet), but cars still have the right of way so if you get hit, it is mostly your fault - they aren’t obviously legally allowed to just drive over you though.
