They said jaywalking was an American concept and it really is. I think only Germany are also that dumb about crossing roads.

Why would the idea of jaywalking laws being predominantly pushed by automobile special interest groups seem so wild to you? I mean, don't tell me you think jaywalking laws have anything to do with people's safety.

Not even Germany, never heard of it. But cars stop at crosswalks so it makes sense to use them on busy streets.
