A Los Angeles City Council member is pushing to change the law that makes it illegal to step off the curb when the crosswalk red hand light starts flashing. He says that the law was instituted before modern crosswalk lights with countdown clocks were added. He's right, and if you think nobody ever gets ticketed for that, remember, this is L.A. Jaywalking is a profit center for the cops. 17,000 people were ticketed for crossing on a flashing red over four years. (City News Service via Daily Breeze, Torrance)
