I know because I had to walk across it once. You're walking on the sidewalk with people sitting out, taking in the sun, talking to friends and you're just looking around at all the new horizons when suddenly a skater comes by at whipping speed, just missing you by inches. And he turns around and looks at you like it's your fault you almost collided.
