An apparatus to generate a user-defined crosswalk comprises a processor to receive an input from a user to request a crosswalk across a roadway at a selected location and a memory coupled to the processor to store information regarding the crosswalk. The processor is to transmit the request to one or more vehicles using the roadway, and to receive a response indicating whether the crosswalk request is accepted such that the one or more vehicles are to stop to allow the user to cross the roadway using the crosswalk at the selected location in the event the crosswalk request is accepted.
