Because the responsibility of self awareness is 100% on the driver not the pedestrian…not to say drivers shouldn’t be aware but the amount of folks blindly walking into traffic headphones on looking at their phone is insane.
It’s both parties responsibility to make sure they’re safe…also don’t ever drive and text…then it is your fault.
It’s not excusable to run someone over because they weren’t looking.
Drivers are incased in a tonne of steel, they should always be aware of the danger they pose to pedestrians. It’s criminal how light drivers are treated when they crash, even when they are fully at fault.

Victim blaming is widely considered a shit take.
