What consitutes a crosswalk?
The following are what I've seen.
1.) A hashed area with yield signs showing a person in the crosswalk directed at traffic.
2.) A hashed area with no yield sign.
3.) A crossing with two solid white lines, no hash.
4.) No lines, but sidewalks have dips down to street level opposite each other.
5.) Sidewalk ends on one street and continues on other side but no dips, full curb.
Also is there a difference between a crosswalk and a crossing?
Does a pedestrian always have legal right-of-way at unregulated crosswalks or crossings?
I gather that if there is a signal (walk/no walk) for pedestrians they ONLY have right of way when 'walk' signal is present.
PS - I am aware that re: right-of-way that a pedestrian will ALWAYS loose the battle of physics
