The powers and intentions of Legal Crossing Man are pretty much seen in his name. He dedicates his life to preventing the most heinous crime of all -- jaywalking. Any such perpetrators of this most malicious misdeed is met with a maw-full of moral.... uh.... anyone who jaywalks is given a stern talking to. If that doesn't work, they are squirted with a water gun. If the offender persists even then, Legal Crossing Man blows a whistle. (Bystanders have noted that this is a very ineffectual manoeuvre, as it doesn't seem to call anyone and only hurts the ears briefly)

Where the hell this guy came from and other such information is anyone's guess. A popular guess, however, is the local lunatic asylum.

legal crossing man perhaps had his [insert family member] killed when they brazenly jaywalked in front of a car, thus making him vow that he would spend his life dedicated to the pursuit of the offenders, which he admits are just ignorant souls in need of guidance. Of course, he has no idea that his means are stupid and ineffective and thus his war against jaywalking is never-ending.

i assume he sleeps in his costume in a cardboard box somewhere... in the few hours a week he actually does sleep.

he's currently working on becoming one with the crosswalk.

hehehehe! He makes me happy inside! Although that could be because I am not sleeping anymore!
