simply put... crosswalks at stores are NOT for racing !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 
i was walking out of the grocery store and a very immature teenager (was probably in his 20's, but behaved like a kid !!!) sped across in front of the store right where we were about to cross over to the parking lot. 
if I had kept walking into the yellow-line-infested crosswalk as normal people usually do assuming the cars will yield to peds, this guy would have killed us !!!
i don't encourage the vulgar/physical expresssions I gave this guy or the near butt-beating I almost inflicted on him if he had come back, but...
SLOW DOWN at crosswalks !!!!!
nuff said.
