Jaywalking, or as it is more concisely known in the UK, crossing at the red man, really winds me up. So I decided to capture it for this week’s Photo Challenge – things that make you angry.

I used the aerial photo view of Google Maps to try and find pedestrian-friendly bridges thatContinue reading “Night traffic”
