I keep making possibly dangerous mistakes, today I didn't yield to a pedestrian at a crossing. I had checked for people while approaching it, stopped at the stop sign right in front of it, but as I was about to move on a pedestrian appeared and I stopped, they stopped, I started moving, they started moving, stopped again and they decided to just walk to the next crossing in the parking lot.

From where I stopped the crossing lines were blocked by my hood and could only be seen on the top right corner of my hood a bit. I didn't realise I was at a crossing and was confused by why they were trying to cross in front of me, thinking 'Hey the crossing is back there, not here.'. I saw them start walking down the side of my car to get past. And now my brain is insisting that when I started turning (right after the stop sign) I might have gotten close to them, which isn't how turns work unless they're practically against your car.

This week has been bad for me driving wise and I feel like I'm dangerous by accident. It makes me feel so guilty and angry with myself, I've been driving for years, why do I suddenly suck so badly? I'm so glad the guy didn't get angry, and my anxiety is insisting I might have clipped him somehow which is extremely unlikely. But that doesn't stop me from carefully checking my car for any indication that I did.
