Pedestrians should also take responsibility for acting dangerously.

To me it's the same if a driver cuts in front of me and then slams on their brakes, there was nothing I could have done about crashing into them no matter how safely I was driving.

If a person runs in front of a moving vehicle it shouldn't be the driver responsible if they basically cut the car off. A car can't stop on a dime.

Drivers should be held responsible if they were clearly driving in an unsafe manner, but we have the share the space somehow.
