2012 Spot the Tort Contest: [Don't] Walk This Way

October 16th, 2012
2012 Spot the Tort Contest2012 “Spot the Tort” Contest with my 1Ls at the University of Memphis law school:

The box indicating when to walk and how much time remains is oriented in a way that those actually crossing at the corner cannot see.  I think a storm moved it a while ago and it has never been fixed. Not knowing how much time I had left to cross the street and avoiding death was the most exciting part of my morning. – Thomas Turner
