Arrogant Pedestrians Take Note21 Jul 2006 13:40 GMT16
You can't just walk willy-nilly anywhere you please and expect cars to

In most areas where there are numbered roads, the Zero (or One) point is

In Yolo County, CA, there are two sets of numbered roads.  One set includes

Today I found myself in a traffic clump, with an LLB up front and
two others between him and me. These others changed lane

Going down the road, I had to swerve slightly to avoid hitting a
