   Sigh. Crossing other than at a crosswalk is not jaywalking. It's   
   perfectly legal and safe to cross between intersections upon yielding   
   to traffic; that's not jaywalking.   
      
   Intersections have far more turning movements, versus none midblock.   
   Therefore, which would actually be safer for the pedestrian?
