Looks like every one of them didn't pay attention to where the curb was, and just turned around the sign.

From the pics it looked like they started off really close to the curb too, so it'd be easy to be confused by the sign, especially if they were sitting in their cars for a while, zoning out, waiting for the light to flip.

Cannysage: Better be careful in the Z The doors are kinda high and have bad curb visibility...

true, but the limit line is at the end of the curb. so any sensible person that actually pulls up to the limit line (crosswalk) would clearly miss hitting the curb even if they turned the wheel completely from a dead stop
