This is why you should never stop for a ped at a crosswalk with more than one lane unless they are already committed to crossing. It’s the equivalent of waving someone over across multiple lanes of traffic. The guy with the cam almost killed her by stopping for her before saving her with the honk

Drivers should be able to lane split when it is reasonable and prudent too. They do it in Asia, the blind spot is smaller( closer to adjacent vehicle) and is a more efficient use of space, especially with the super wide american lanes that can fit 2 cars side by side
