British adults ignoring the green cross code

A new poll has found that adults in Britain are increasingly ignoring the advice to “stop, look and listen” when crossing the road and are instead just stepping out.

The survey, from Sheilas’ Wheels, questioned 1,000 adults and found that almost half do not stop before crossing the road while a quarter do not even look both ways. The figures also revealed that nearly all admitted to crossing between vehicles that had stopped while 86% confessed to crossing the road halfway when only one side was clear.

The survey, which named Londoners as the most dangerous pedestrians, found that a large percentage of people were distracted while crossing the road due to talking on their mobile phone, texting, listening to music and some even reading a book or newspaper.

I appointed Winston’s as conveyancers for both the sale of my existing home, and purchase of my next one. Sidraa and Tom were fantastic, working with pace and always responsive by email and/or when I called. It was far more seamless than I anticipated and I was incredibly impressed with their efficiency and communication. Thank you!

I found Winston Solicitors through, of all places, a post on Reddit from property flippers. They had great reviews on it and being a trusted person, did my due dilligence and checked Google too. I wasn't disappointed. I had been dealing with Amanda, Tom and Sidraa throughout my sale and purchase. I felt like I had the best team all the way through. Nothing got passed them and they were always prompt, helpful and friendly from start to finish. Sidraa certainly had her work cut out and she made me feel like they had my back and my interests at heart. Please don't be put off by using solicitors miles away. Most of this can be done online nowadays. It's all so easy to do. I don't want to move anytime soon but, if I have to, I will be using Winston Solicitors again and preferably the same team! Thank you all.
