Seems people (in cars) think they know the rules of the road; but they don't.
A couple years ago, on a business trip to The Netherlands, we're standing at the pedestrian (zebra) crossing waiting to cross. A car stops, then hoots, because we weren't walking. While it's a rule in this country, I'd struggle to find car (in Gauteng) that actaully adhere's to this rule. So habit is that we (pedestrians) wait for cars instead of the other way round.
On honeymoon in Knysna (almost 20 years ago) I failed to yield to people at a pedestrian crossing; I realised my own bad habit a few seconds later, as it's been like that in Gauteng for as long as I've had my licence (if not longer).
Don't get me started on a traffic circle... makes my blood boil every time someone stops in the circle to let someone, who should be yielding, in.
While looking for the (law) wording on this, I found something else that is not adhered to, called hit-n-run.
