The Wyoming law seems to implicitly assume that a) intersections are spaced close to each other and b) each intersection with traffic lights also has pedestrian crossings.
I assume b) is simply enforced by some regulation, but a) sounds like it could lead to lots of unintended problems. What if there's miles between two adjacent intersections? A person standing in the middle would have to know if by chance both the intersection to their left and right have a traffic light, and then walk to the closest one if that's the case (or find a marked crosswalk).
