Crossing Road in San Jose, California, USA :: Part 1 by Arun Kumar B

Crossing Road in San Jose, California, USA :: Part 1 by Arun Kumar B

All credit goes to Geetha Akka, without her I wouldn't have seen other than office/ hotel during my Jun 2010 US trip...

In San Jose (also in all cities in US), pedestrians are very hard to see. Most common way to commute is through cars.

During my short US trip, enjoyed long walks to many places. Walking in SJC is not like in India. One has to be more careful while crossing signals. Avoid walking during nights, as it is dangerous...
