People who don't stop at pedestrian crossings.
Maybe they've bought into the strange way transport terminology is used and think the "pedestrian" belongs to another species altogther, rather than something they become on the rare occasions when they park their asshole-mobiles and actually walk somewhere.
I propose the death-penalty for BMW drivers who charge through pedestrian crossings while wee old people or mothers struggling with their children are waiting to cross. This would be both a revolutionary and a utilitarian outcome, in my view.
"It has been the misfortune of this age, that everything is to be discussed, as if the constitution of our country were to be always a subject rather of altercation than enjoyment." - Edmund Burke anticipates the Neverendum
