I have been wondering the same thing myself. I would go a step further and suggest that non-lonely crosswalks should work to prioritize pedestrians over cars.
Even in a place like California where pedestrians supposedly have the right-of-way, it would encourage more walking if we try not to make it an inconvenience.
