These idiots are doing it wrong.
I'm a big fan of jaywalking, but the rule around the world is that if you jaywalk, the onus is on you the jaywalker to adapt to the environment, not for cars to adapt to you. You can't expect to break the rules, but expect the cars to follow the rules. Otherwise everyone gets confused and that's when bad things happen. A good jaywalker knows he can't interrupt traffic, so he weaves around it. If a car has to stop, or even slow down, in the middle of the road for you, you're being a crappy jaywalker.
