If people walk out I never stop, I just make them run across the road for being idiots themselves

Highway code works both ways

Zebra crossings. Give traffic plenty of time to see you and to stop before you start to cross. Vehicles will need more time when the road is slippery. Wait until traffic has stopped from both directions or the road is clear before crossing. Remember that traffic does not have to stop until someone has moved onto the crossing. Keep looking both ways, and listening, in case a driver or rider has not seen you and attempts to overtake a vehicle that has stopped.

Thats Germany though, Europe is terrible to drive in. Germany doesn't even have a speed limit
