Will we see the arrival of a new fire on our roads? Anyway, that’s what’s been tested many cities of France

This new fire yellow colorwill be at the destination pedestrians. With the same purpose as the orange light for cars, the yellow light for pedestrians will warn imminent arrival Red light.

More safety for pedestrians

Will there be a third traffic light for pedestrians in months or years ahead? The probability is high because tests will be done in 7 cities In France.

Objective being, as for car drivers with an orange light to prevent pedestrians The decision was made by the Ministry of Internal Affairs, as well as the Ministry of Transport.

New decree just published where we find above link mention addition “yellow time phase for pedestrians”in addition to reporting already present in cities.

Pedestrian crossing: Like the orange light for cars, the yellow light for pedestrians will be tested in seven French cities. The experiment will be carried out at Metz, Nancy, Nantes, Nice, Strasbourg, Toulouse and Versailles (arrested in the Official Journal). #Crosswalk pic.twitter.com/XvrizrOmkj

stop doing

7 cities in France were chosen to test this system at least two slotsto know:

• Metz
• nancy
• Nantes
• pleasantly
• Strasbourg
• Toulouse
• Versailles

The principle uses what we have for cars. Pedestrians may turn on when the light is green, but should stop when it is gone yellow.

So what will happen pedestrians already engaged, when the light turns yellow, who will be able to continue their crossing.

Not the first device on the site

As already mentioned, the goal is to allow pedestrians to better know when Red light will happen and thus avoid dangerous situations.

Yellow light no first device with this goal in mind. Some may have already seen it red lights with a little countdown below.

finally, some green lights flashes when a red light is approaching to report to pedestrians
