Every time I see a scene in a US made film that involves characters in a moving vehicle, I’m immediately expecting the violent car crash trope to happen. That’s how normalized the violence of cars is in the USA.
Every time I see a character standing in a street, I expect them to get hit by a car, and I’m usually right. It’s like unspoken language in US media.
Nah, it’s just lazy writing/directing.
I know, but there’s a lot of expectation to seeing a character with their back to the street talking to the camera before getting hit. I think it’s telling as a trope in filmmaking
What gets me is how many precautions you have to take to make sure you don’t die. Wear a seatbelt, ensure your car is properly maintained, look out for obstacles, account for weather and visibility conditions, pay attention to drivers next to you, ahead of you, and at every intersection. And that’s all assuming you’re in proper condition to drive, yourself.
And even accounting for all of that, anything can happen.
