You should not have to backtrack nearly ten minutes to get to a crosswalk. That's just terrible urban design.

Also I don't know where you are, but in many US States every intersection is a legal crosswalk unless signed otherwise. It just may not be a marked crosswalk.

No no I just straight up skipped the intended crosswalk and went down a long stretch of road where practically no one even lives, to the cross for a bus stop.

The crosswalk is actually perfectly placed (I'm in Germany btw, we call em zebra stripes) and I'm just too idiotic and think only of switching sides once I'm way deep down the road.

So is there not a crosswalk at the bus stop itself? I'm struggling to imagine a bus stop in the middle of literally nothing: there has to be some destination for them to have a stop there, right? If there's a destination, there should be a crosswalk so you can get to and from the bus regardless of which direction you're going or coming from. Otherwise what you have is one-way transportation.

It could easily be in a residential or industrial area
