What makes me feel embarrassed here is that when you are at crossroads, cars may stop and wait you until you walk aross the street first. This seems to be a good thing because there are no traffic lights at many crossroads. As time goes on, though, I begin to dislike such rules.
In many occations, when I'm still on the pavement which is several meters away from the road, the driver sees me and stops. This makes me feel ashamed to walk at a normal speed, as I may let the driver wait for a long time. So I may start walking faster, or even running. However, sometimes when I am ready to cross the roads, the cars start to move after a short period of stop (I think the driver didn't notice me), and then I have to stop, at that time the driver sees me and stops, too. I believe both of us experience a embarrassing moment and stop at the same time. As a result, I prefer traffic lights more. I believe this can make a subjective traffic rule become a fair and objective one. No one would be confused about whether to cross the roads quickly or who should cross the roads first any longer.
