On a busy intersection in NYC

I always like that version of Peter Gunn by The Art of Noise.

Crazy video.

One mistake in the opening title sequence. NYC has not been "ruled by car culture since the 1950s". It is definitely a pedestrian city. The overwhelming majority do not own cars and many do not have licenses (they are issued non-drivers licenses).

On the other hand, no one was injured in the video and out of 12,370 intersections in a city that runs 24/7, 4 people are killed or injured on a daily basis? That seems low considering how many intersections a person enters in a day.

And if you think that's bad, don't go to Beijing. That intersection in Beijing would probably not have a traffic light at all and everyone would be piling into the intersection at the same time, albeit slowly.

It's a deal.

And yet not a single accident actually documented by the documentary.
