wow!!!! that's a great example of some of the ridiculous turns that people try through pedestrian traffic

You can see the one pedestrian running to try to make the light in time. From the left side of the frame. 2 second sooner and he would of been dead. Same goes for the skate boarder who decided to grab his board and walk instead of riding, that saved him his life.

I noticed that the (under-sized) ped signal is steady Dont Walk. This speaks to the idea that much street infrastructure design is geared toward moving vehicles and puts pedestrians at risk.

Looks like a criminal trying to make a getaway. 🤔 (Or at least I hope it is, otherwise, that's just a "normal" driver, and criminals making getaways are, or at least should be less common. 😒)
