The number of people who don't stop at the line is increasing and intentional, some squarely stopping over pedestrian crossing on purpose.
There's something about driving that makes people entitled to park over footpaths, block pedestrian crossings, and stop over bike boxes.

A pedestrianised Lonsdale Street has the potential to rival the world’s great promenades — strolling beneath a canopy of green, vibrant and alive.
Think La Rambla in Barcelona.
Think Avenue des Champs-Élysées in Paris.
Why not Lonsdale Street?

Remember this as another wave of fear mongering nimbyism is starting up about increasing density around train stations.
