I hope that the ones for cars are actually accurate, unlike the pedestrian ones which drastically underestimate the time, causing people to ignore it completely and just look both ways.
- gojomo 18y agoAll the pedestrian crosswalk countdowns I've seen seem to tick off true seconds, with perhaps one extra second at '0'.
