Funny you say that. i have noticed that this depends on the size of the city. For example, I currently live in a medium sized European city (Karlsruhe, Garmany). This is the largest city in the area and as a result many people "go to town"; which results in quite a chaos in down town on a Saturday. The average person is incapable of negotiating a crowded area. In contrast, cities like Paris, Berlin or Munich this was never an issue. The flow of people is almost always running quite smoothly... until a Tourist stumbles on the scene. You also don't see many people using their smartphone while walking; because you can't. If you use your smart phone you either get bumped into or run in front of a tram or bus.
