Regulations for Pedestrians in the USA and Canada
Jaywalking is the general term for crossing mid-block, etc. People do it all the time, and it isn't a problem in less congested areas. Normally, a person does not get cited for any of these violations unless he or she is disrupting traffic or causes an accident. Pedestrians are banned completely on controlled access Interstate highways in urban areas where they may also be called freeways or freeways). Some isolated areas in western states do allow bicycles on Interstates.
A blind person with a white cane always has the right of way and vehicles must stop or yield when the person crosses the road, wherever they cross.
