They're too busy walking while looking down at their phones. I worked for a 
large internet company, and their parking lot didn't have dedicated 
pedestrian areas. You had to walk behind the cars in the lanes to get to 
work.

More times than I could count, someone was walking in traffic, not paying 
attention, not hearing my car on electric and almost walked into my car.

I'm glad I'd never had that happen, because I'm sure they'd claim I'd hit 
them, although I was at a dead stop. I would have appreciated a dash cam 
then.
