On behaviour of people

I find it a tad amusing how people today have attention span as long as they can hear the warning, if even that.

Today I observed police guiding the traffic on a winter parade street. She had a whistle to attract the attention of pedestrians when she wanted to let a car cross the street. Most of the people reacted well enough to the whistle, one I saw staring at the officer with a puzzled look on his face.

So the officer was able to stop the pedestrians with her whistle and handsignals but as soon as she turned her back the people started walking again, right in front of the car.

Come on people, there is a reason the police wants you to stop... Sheez...
