BIKE: 80% of pedestrians don't understand walk/don't walk

[elizabeth gray]

This is kind of off topic, but I was surprised that a study shows that 80%
of pedestrians don't understand the walk/don't walk signs.  And the new
count down makes it worse.

They didn't mention inclusion of the beep at the beginning of the cycle;
I've read that really helps kids cross safely--and I love it when I'm on my
bike, such as the intersection of Guadalupe and 29th.
