recently
Attentive friends should find out
On both sides of the zebra crossing at the entrance of the Qingyun capital
There are more "request-based" pedestrian crossing lights
And it is already in service
What is
"Requested" pedestrian crossing lights?
To put it simply, the pedestrian pushes the button to request the crossing signal, when no one crosses the road, the traffic light has been maintained in the green light state of the roadway; when the pedestrian wants to cross the road, as long as the button is pressed, the signal light receives the "request", wait for a certain time, the pedestrian crossing signal light that was originally a red light will switch to a green light, and the pedestrian can cross the road, and the lane signal light is converted from a green light to a red light, and the pedestrian green light is restored to the state of traffic after the end of the pedestrian green light.
If there are pedestrians crossing the street all the time, don't the cars on the roadway have to wait all the time? What should I do if it causes a traffic jam? Don't worry, our traffic lights are very smart, and the crossing request can only be executed once in 60 seconds.
How to use a "request" crossing light in two steps?
Step 1: When you need to cross the street, find and press the button shown in the picture;
Step 2: Cross the street after waiting for the red light to turn green;
Note: The red light of the pedestrian crossing will not turn green without pressing the button, in other words, it can only be controlled manually, so remember to press the button before crossing the street!
Running a red light is a traffic violation, and it is necessary to remind everyone that Article 62 of the Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China stipulates that pedestrians passing through intersections or crossing roads should take crosswalks or crossing facilities, and when crossing crosswalks with traffic lights, they should follow the instructions of traffic lights.
Traffic police are instructing pedestrians at intersections on how to use "request-style" crossing lights
If a traffic accident occurs due to a pedestrian running a red light, the pedestrian will be legally liable. So, now that the street crossing lights have been installed, the friends should give full play to their functions.
