Yesterday, while doing errands I was making a left turn at the intersection of Euclid and Forest Park,  I had the green arrow, while I was trying to make my turn I had a bunch of walkers walking thru the crosswalk, so I had to stop to let them by, well, some jerk behind me didn't like the fact that I didn't mow down these walkers and let me know about it by honking loudly.  People even though we have a green arrow, if there are pedestrians we are suppose to let the pedestrians walk through,  don't get your panties in a bunch and start honking because I stopped,  my only other choice would have been to put several walkers into the hospital, and be arrested for running over a pedestrian.  I don't know about you, but I would rather stay out of jail.

Thank you for doing the right thing. I have been honked at as well giving the pedestrians a chance to cross the street.

Under most circumstances, when a driver has a green arrow it's "do not walk" on all displays. If this is the intersection that I remember, it was a "do not walk" signal - check it out.

It maybe. but again they were in the crosswalk and I am not mowing down people while they are in the crosswalk, even if they are in the wrong, by the way, at Forest Park and Grand it's the same way. These people walk right out in front of people who have the green light. So way is the city allowing this to happen, since they have the cameras up in that area, why aren't they cracking down on jaywalker too. FOX2 you need to set up your own camera at this intersection and watch the jaywalkers in action and send to the city to see what they say.
