 Why aren't there more collisions in public spaces with many pedestrians? This question has been on my mind, so I did a little research:
Crowds usually do not turn into chaos because humans constantly and unconsciously predict each other’s movements. While walking, people adjust their speed, direction, and body posture long before a collision would happen. Small signals — such as gaze direction, shoulder angle, or walking rhythm — help others anticipate where someone is going.
There are numerous studies on this human behavior, and efforts are being made to apply the insights gained from them to motorized traffic. Unfortunately, however, this has not yet worked.

A richly inspired crop that tells exactly the right story for this challenge. This was among my challenge favorites. I smile trying to imagine this low-angle capture in context.
