Jaywalking is so weird to me as a Brit. Sometimes it can be a little dangerous to cross the road, but it’s not unusual to do in cities and towns. There are zebra crossings and such, but they aren’t mandatory (although it’s always best to use them). The only roads you can’t walk on are high-speed roads like motorways, which shouldn’t be a shock. If a driver kills someone walking on the road, they’re probably at fault.
