        Yeah, but if they're looking at their phones, how will they be able to stay in their lane?

        I think more water fountains should be built for people glued to their phones. Fountains like the one the lady fell into while she was glued to her phone.

        Kind of sad that this is necessary, but I remember being shocked during my last visit to Beijing. I kept wanting to shout "look up for a minute" to the teenagers all walking like Zombies with their eyes glued to their screens.

        Much needed. A parking lot would be good for drivers doing the same thing.

        Makes sense. Great way to separate them. I get tired of having to walk around them bc they are going super slow and/Or taking up the entire sidewalk or going they shouldn't be.
