also @User you seem to selectively forget that the highway code also covers pedestrians
https://www.gov.uk/rules-pedestrians-1-to-35/crossing-the-road-7-to-17
It very very clearly states that pedestrians can not walk right out into traffic, but I will highlight
"D. If traffic is coming, let it pass. Look all around again and listen. Do not cross until there is a safe gap in the traffic and you are certain that there is plenty of time. Remember, even if traffic is a long way off, it may be approaching very quickly."
and
"Bus and cycle lanes. Take care when crossing these lanes as traffic may be moving faster than in the other lanes, or against the flow of traffic."
