Have you taken notice to crosswalk signals slowly but surely taking away the wording and changing over to a green walk and red don't walk symbols. That's because the population of people who cannot read english is increasing. Construction zones have signs written in english and have symbols. Janitorial signs where I work have "caution wet floor" written in english, spanish, and german. These signs are specifically purchased for this foreign trade zone. If the person walking down the hall can't read in any language, there's still the man falling symbol.
