Pedestrian Lane

On my way to highway seno in Mandaue where I used to pass to fetch and send-off my sister to work, there are 3 lanes: leftmost lane is way to A.S. fortuna street, middle lane to Lapu2x and the rightmost lane to mandaue. I've noticed when the left-signal turns green the way to A.S. fortuna people start crossing in the middle and check if there are vehicles or not and try to cross even the signal is green. Some people just cross in the middle and wait until the light turns red before it crosses. Some people are in the hurry and try to cross especially the moving vehicle is not that fast. What's worst is that other people force to cross even the moving vehicle is close to them and causes the vehicle to stop while waiting all the people have cross the lane which I think is not right for the reason its still a green signal.

Today instead of letting them cross as what other vehicle does when its on a green signal, I didn't let them cross by beeping my horn. One woman seems to complain, I open my window and told her next time to look at the signal. This incident reminds me on Erik's blog when people are in the rush to fall in line in the airport even its not yet their turn. That woman may think I was harsh, sorry I'm not. I just want to make a point to them that it is not right to cross the pedestrian when the traffic signal is green to avoid accidents and car bump when sudden brake is applied which may result to traffic.
