No, it increases the number of jaywalkers. If you know that the light is on a timer and you will have your turn in 15 seconds, you have little reason not to wait the 15 seconds. But if you have to press a button for something, you deserve quick response to the button push, and if it doesn't come quickly, you give up in disgust and cross against the light.
