A hoboken Street Junction - notice the Pedestrian stop and Go lamps. A Red (or Orange) palm indicating Stop and a white Man (or a blinking WALK lettering) indicating when its safe to walk. But in New York anyway, its terrorizing for the motorists, because rarely do people pay heed to the rules; they just barge in and keep walking no matter what if there are cars or not.. Golden rule is - Right of way is with the Pedestrians, not Motorists
