The fact that it seems legal to hit someone there at a flashing yellow is wild, even if it’s somehow not a crosswalk. Where I live, hitting anyone, including jaywalking pedestrians in dim light wearing all black, is illegal and can get you at least manslaughter.

Then again, I’m pretty sure people still get off… especially if they hit a bicyclist. The technicality they use is calling it a vehicle, and hitting a vehicle isn’t illegal even if it kills someone. My cousin got hit biking on the sidewalk in the wrong direction and wasn’t able to sue for hospital bill, though that’s always an incredibly unsafe thing to do at speed.
