Vancouver drivers: I was crossing 11th and Burrard (East to West) because the Northbound lane was clear and traffic heading South was stopped at the 12th Avenue light. When I reached the centre line of the (unmarked) crosswalk an SUV driver heading South who had ample time to adjust their speed pulled up directly in front of me. Their action blocked my safe passage requiring a time consuming and potentially dangerous walk around. #Vancouver https://vancouver.citynews.ca/2026/04/13/vancouver-hi...
