To ignore car drivers who wave me across?

I get this both as a cyclist and a pedestrian, I usually have a small child with me and I think it's bloody dangerous.

Then they drive off shaking their heads at my lack of gratitude at their supposed benevolence.

Anybody else sick of this? Can drivers just stop doing this and follow the fucking rules?

You’re right, it’s dangerous and I tell my DC never to cross if waived across by drivers. When I was in my late teens, I was waved across by a driver and got hit by a cyclist who came up behind him and hadn’t seen me

Not sure if intentional, but it sounds like you are putting the blame on the cyclist.
