What about placing the pedestrian push button on the ground?
I think that would make it easier for people to use it. When someone carries heavy bags for example it's easier to step on it than lift the arms to push it. People who are very tall have to bend and people who are very short have to stretch or lift their arms. It's also more hygienic as people don't have to use their hands to press it.

If violence breeds violence
Why don't the moderates in Iran get radicalized the way their religion would expect them to when they are the powerless minority? The media portrays the protests in Iran as a fight of Iranians versus Iranians. When it comes to the street, the Islamic government militia has the upper hand. They are in control and know it. But if a few radicalized moderates blow up a truck in a police station, behead publicly a few government officials and secret police officers, then that's a totally different story, the true beginning of fear on both sides and the spark of civil war in Iran. That's Iranians versus Iranians. Street protests is a one-sided show of power. Fear will make it two-sided and lead to the election of an Iranian Obama eventually

They can save time when you want to cross the street on a large intersection. Surprisingly you rarely see them in big cities, except for Japan perhaps. In the UK, crossing the street on a diagonal is called jaywalking, which is also illegal in some states in the US. Why can't the government install diagonal crossings with traffic lights on each end and make it legal to cross on a diagonal? Do you think it should be illegal to cross on a diagonal?

Why nobody ever thought of throwing salt on the streets and pavements before snowfall and always do so after all the damage is done in order to avoid accidents???
