Pedestrians are not king in London. You cross the road and even a pedestrian crossing with aprehension and an enormous awareness of the oncoming traffic. A far cry from Vancouver where if you as so much as point your toe in the general direction of the road all the cars come to a grinding halt.
You really can walk everywhere in London but there are things that you have to consider that wouldn't even cross your mind back home eg. do I want 1 or 2 litres of milk, keeping in mind that I have to carry it home and still have a couple of other things to do on the way home?
