Gravatar well the people in zurich are so anal that even at 7am on a cold sunday morning unless the green man is on they refuse to cross the road. probably got something to do with not allowing me to flush my toilet at night or use the washing machine.


Gravatar If only someone would invent an intelligent pedestrian crossing that notices:
a) the road is completely clear, so I'll stick the red light on early
OR
b) all the pedestrians have crossed, so I won't change the lights to red at all
then I suspect us pedestrians and you bikers would be a lot happier.

Or, for the more socially aware pedestrians amongst us, it would be great if there was a second button we could press after we've crossed early that would turn the 'WAIT' sign off.

In the meantime, do please continue to ride up on the pavement and mow people like me down.


Gravatar Isn't this a repeat-post?

It must REALLY annoy you.


Gravatar DG and I still disagree on whether pressing the button more than once gets the light to red faster. I'm sure I read somewhere that some pedestrian crossing lights (particulalry in towns) are set not to respond until a certain number of pushes.

Anyone for a spot of research?
I'll join dave on the mow-em-down team though, sounds much more fun


Gravatar I don't think that dog in the uniform is Edward either. Am I wrong?


Gravatar Ah, don't comment when you are tired Witchy - just realised it's meant to be his forefather. Well, it made me laugh, so you know what that means....


Gravatar Is this whatr Johnny Rotten was on about when he sang..."Give a wrong time, Stop a traffic line"

I never dared, for I was a good punk.


Gravatar Pram face is lovely. How does that differ from a council face?
