Downtown Street Lights Out

Traffic lights are out in downtown Spokane so be careful if you're headed that way. At least all the ones between the SRTC office and City Hall are. For the most part, everyone was treating intersections as 4-way stops, but I was walking so it made it kind of scary to cross the street. Sure, the guy in the lane closest to me would motion for me to walk, but the guy in the next lane over would fly up at a too-fast speed and not see me so I was a little nervous that I wasn't going to make it back to the office in one piece.
