How fortunate for you! Try to imagine what crossing the street might be like for someone who can not cross the road everywhere and could benefit from guidance to tell them where it is possible or safe. > And I hate it when the satnav announces a warning for the upcoming crossing, > and there comes nothing the requires extra attention. Again, try to have some empathy towards other users who are not you. It’s great that you are such an attentive driver. If the satnav warning helps bad drivers not hit kids, I’m all for it.
