Watching the sidewalk closely, she looked up just before bumping 3 into someone. He had just crossed the street. He said, "Watch it, will you? You almost knocked me over." She said, "You watch it. I was on the sidewalk before you. I had the right of way. You should look both ways before you step onto the sidewalk." He said, "It's not my fault. I didn't see you or hear you. You're like a ghost. Let people know you're there. Use a flashlight. Walk louder."
