There's a certain breed of arrogant pedestrian that crosses against the lights to prove they have power. The less money you have, the more likely you are to do it in affluent neighborhoods. As a driver you're supposed to be alert and you're supposed to yield the right of way to pedestrians. As a robot, same thing... but if your programming sucks, and you're banking on a human driver who doesn't notice...
