so my assumption is that, being a highway, the shoulder is about six feet wide, there are multiple lanes, and there is great visibility of the ditch next to the highway (that headlights do light up). that’s what a highway is around here
in that case, walking speed is more than enough time to react, assuming you’re actually paying attention while driving and looking ahead.
That really depends on the distance between the vehicle and the pedestrian at the time the pedestrian enters the highway.

I don’t think those are reasonable assumptions. In some places, yes.
