Actually, I suppose that pedestrians are more vulnerable to danger and injury, than a driver in a protective car. And also, a driver in the car could injure a pedestrian, but the pedestrian can't injure you. However, at traffic lights you have you're own fair turn to cross the intersection and travel across.
