You can’t have a system where pedestrians are protected from cars by signaling them with body language. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The system needs signals, but signals are expensive.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It will be interesting to read up on this and learn why they are using a completely unique signal.</span></span><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"><span style="font-family: verdana,geneva;"><span style="font-size: small;"> </span></span> </span></span></p>
