Passage Summary: Even though we are taught that crossing at the corner is safer and drivers expect us there, more people actually die at corners than when they cross the street illegally in the middle of the block.

Reasoning: The passage notes that while crossing at corners is considered safer and more predictable for drivers, statistics indicate a higher number of pedestrian fatalities at corners compared to jaywalking.

Analysis: To resolve this paradox, we need to find a reason why the 'safer' location has a higher death toll. A common trap in LSAT statistics is the difference between total numbers and rates. If 99% of people cross at corners and only 1% jaywalk, the corners will likely have more deaths even if they are technically safer per crossing. Alternatively, perhaps corners are more dangerous due to turning vehicles that jaywalkers don't have to worry about. Look for an answer choice that provides a reason for the higher volume of accidents at corners without contradicting the idea that jaywalking is illegal and dangerous.
