So do cyclists Loraine - whether they do so is another matter.
By the way, I'd disagree with your saying pedestrians have to wait at junctions, traffic lights etc. There isn't much compelling them to do so, other than a sense of self preservation and the ghost of David Prowse behind you (if you are of a certain age ;) Unlike plenty of other countries, there aren't any laws prohibiting pedestrians crossing the road away from a crossing, or crossing when the red man is showing on the pedestrian facing lights at a crossing.
