Advice for the pedestrian

Remember: anything with four wheels beats anything on two feet! Always be alert to the fact that drivers have little respect for pedestrians and it will be your job to watch out for them. Use caution when crossing in above-ground crosswalks; always use the подземный переход underground crosswalk when one is available.

Keep in mind that these underground crosswalks are places for street musicians, beggars and pickpockets to congregate. While these crosswalks lessen the danger of you being hit by a car, they pose certain dangers in themselves. Be alert! Be careful!
