Description
After getting off the bus in southbound lane of Rt. 9 at Strickland Rd, I attempted to cross Rt. 9 after the light turned green. I was only half-way across the busy highway, when it turned green for the traffic to continue. I did not want to wait in the middle of the highway, so I continued and someone came very close to hitting me!

But despite saying that, I do agree that the intersection cannot handle all of the pedestrian and vehicle traffic. And I've always been of the belief that is a town and/or NJ Transit is going to implement a Park and Ride that it should add a pedestrian overpass in the interest of safety especially during the winter months when passengers in their dark winter coats are crossing these roads before sunrise or after sunset

Pedestrians should NOT be walking against the walk signals at all. Patience is a virtue. Safety is of the utmost importance.
What if I decided that I did not want to wait for the green light and decided to go through it with my car? Would you be happy then?
Why not be an Adult and observe the traffic safety devices that are present for your safety? These are not optional; use common sense.
