Some people are in a rush and don't see the red light, or choose not to see the red light and hope they don't get knocked down while trying to cross the road. Some people just can't wait for the green man to come on, and so they jaywalk to keep moving.

They're impatient and think they can walk fast enough to avoid cars. It's a stupid thing to do in big cities, especially since some police officers will give you a ticket for it, if they catch you.

I've answered a lot of question on this yahoo site but I'm afraid I'm lost on this one. I could make up a funny reply but instead will just check back to see if some one can enlighten me.
