I do a *lot* of walking on the streets of Victoria BC #YYJ. Thought I'd start a pedestrian thread 🚶🚶‍♀️🧵

Except for our once or twice a year snowstorm, the worst weather problem for a Victoria pedestrian is the wind. I don't mind the rain if I can carry an umbrella.

Speaking of snow, it's the homeowners' responsibility to clear their sidewalks here. Maybe 2/3 do, but a neighborhood walk is still a dicey proposition. I'd be interested to know how many tickets are usually given, @CityOfVictoria - or is it more of a suggestion?

I'm *always* extra wary about traffic, but I cross so many streets I've had a few close calls. Drivers are going too fast, or they're distracted, or they DGAF. #YYJ

This was a scary scene from yesterday, not too far from my place.
