Why are we not stopping at crosswalks??

I've been living in Richmond for a few months now and I feel like I'm missing something??? I walk with my baby in the stroller to the parks in our neighbourhood and we use a few crosswalks - one has amber flashing lights and another is uncontrolled as it's on a side road - and drivers just don't stop?? We usually have to wait until all cars have passed before we can cross. And if someone does stop, the car behind will try to pass them nearly hitting us in the crosswalk. This has happened so frequently that I've gotten to a point where I'm expecting it now. I get that Richmond drivers will be Richmond drivers but seriously am I missing something here?
