Boy have I got the solution for you

Just carry a brick and wave it at traffic as you cross. Make sure they know that you can fuck them up and everyone should play nice.

I’d wager that a fake and lightweight but realistic looking brick for ease of carrying around would probably work too, since it’s the visual warning you’re after

If you forget to bring your brick with you, sometimes a silly walk can be just as effective at getting attention and intimidation (most people don't fuck with crazy).

But if what I need to use brick? Should I carry a backup real brick© just in case?

a well-marked emergency propane tank is also acceptable.

I always have those on me! Good thinking my friend.

Maybe Ninja Rocks could be the solution for you. Only fucks up windows, though
