I feel like that when I'm driving through Oakland in Pittsburgh when during the
school year. The college kids are just begging to be hit.

Not to let the spoiled university lefties of California off the hook...
but the "we can shut down OUR street" mentality of university students seem
to be widespread.
I've encountered it in even in conservative havens like Stillwater, OK
(home of Oklahoma State University...the last place President Nixon,
and later, VP Quayle could get a friendly audience.)

Not here in Central PA..

There's a school in Williamsport (Penn Tech), these kids always wait for traffic to be clear before running out into it..

Out at Pitt, goodness gracious.. you can be driving 20-25 mph, and they'll step right out in front of you..

I think it's more of an urban thing.
