    Default Learn the green cross code or get run down.

    Before the politically correct brigade start shouting this is in no way racist.

    I live in leicestershire and the nearer to the city you get the bigger the asian community. I have noticed over the last year that many asians (never noticed it with other people) seem to walk straight out in the road and think that by holding their hand up to you they can walk straight across :s why don't they use the pedestrian crossings or cross safely between traffic? I am seriously considering speeding up next time to try and learn them the lesson that its not how we cross the road.
    I have been to India and cant recall seeing this done there and the way they drive I dont think they would dare.

    I am not saying all asians do this and its a very small minority but I am just wondering why they do it and where they got the idea from.

    I've noticed this too. It's the same with Asian taxi-drivers pulling out in front of me or stopping in the middle of the road and thinking that putting their hazard lights on makes it okay. I honestly can't say where they could have got this idea from without appearing to be racist.

    I live in Leicestershire, snap!

    But yeah, I have seen a few people do it, and it is stupid. As if they'll actually stop/slow down simply because you put your hand up.

    you should try driving in india lol its a great experience as long as you dont own the vehicle :p when you are at a T junction turning right or left they seem to go around you both sides. I saw 4 indians and a dog on 1 motorbike lol and another time 2 were on it but the passenger was holding a house door above their heads.

    I'm sure if leicestershire was placed in south wales we would have 90% of the habbo uk community. almost everybody you ask is from leicestershire or south wales
