We have Tim Horton's here, however the donuts are from frozen. Krispy Kreme is fresh at the store, but when they are in a convenience store look out. We have a chain called Jolly Pirate that I personally like (made at the store).

A person tried for the Darwin award this morning. I missed hitting them by about a meter.
This was a dark rural two lane road (no street lights), and they were waring dark cloths. Even with an oncoming car lights I did not see them until I was upon them. Why they were crossing there or even why they were there I have no idea.
Scared me awake!

And you didn't stop to find out, or make sure they are ok?

So? That close you might have "brushed" them with a wing mirror, or knocked them down with the wind blast, or even scared them into a heart attack...
And stopping would give you a chance to check, and point out the darkness and that next time someone might get rather closer...

It's not just that - though that's the main part for me - if you don't, and they die...
In the UK that's a minimum of "leaving the scene of an accident" and possibly "manslaughter" or "causing death by dangerous driving", and I'm sure most countries have similar legislation (In France I think they have a "Good Samaritan" law which could cover it since the walker could need medical help and you drove away). Either way, if they die then the police start assuming "hit and run" and go looking for you until proven otherwise!

I very nearly ran over a Conservative MP on the eve of the last General Election, I mean very, very, very nearly.
I did stop, but it was mostly to swear at him a lot.

The French Good Samaritan law was obviously what caused the driver of the car in Nice (a normally pleasant city in the south of France) to stop for a moment after he hit me (I rolled over the bonnet, up the windscreen onto the roof and then slid off sideways to the ground) to make sure I sat up before he zoomed off down the narrow street. The various onlookers, stopped, looked for a moment and then moved on - except for a young chap who came over to help me up and see if I was OK (he was an English tourist). It turns out, luckily, that Peugeot 309s don't hurt you very much when they hit you.

Do you really want to eat a sheep from there. You know what the locals are doing with them. 
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

Its called the herd effect. You clearly can see someone who is too lazy to use the underpass who is about 50 meters away from him and risk his life trying to cross 4 lane busy as hell road. And he is never alone. Once the subject is seen trying to pass few other subject join him to raise the coffin sales.
And they say humans are above animals. I have seen dogs pass roads safer than humans

Ohh yes - I've come across this many times before.
My particular beef are cyclists who wear black jeans, black jumper and a black hat (not a helmet) with no lights.
It's as if they want to die.

Even worse are those who have a flashing light on the front that strobes and completely f***s your vision and ability to respond properly.
