Definitely make it easier for people on crosswalks to start walking. Knowing that they are slowing down.

The couple of times they tried out roundabouts in my area, they didn't last long because people were too stupid to figure out how to use them. So instead they just bitched until they were taken out.

Same here in the US, though I’ll say as someone actually colorblind, it’s not the easiest to decipher the red/yellow when at speed until you’re somewhat close. Normally not an issue since anything resembling red=start slowing down, but there are situations where a standard light may start acting as a single flashing red or yellow, and that can be tough to figure out at speed. Flashing reds are supposed to have stops signs here as far as I know, but there’s been at least one intersection that hasn’t had them, which certainly gives me some anxiety about taking that as a rule. The system works alright enough, but it’s definitely frustrating that we settled on red/green for things when that’s the most common color blindness. I have some strong opinions on bathroom indicators, particularly in airport bathrooms where the lighting is often sub par too

Proper self-driving cars? Do you mean a bus?

Sure but the second I lose my mobility I will put a deer slug through my head.

Putting fewer people in danger than the pavement princess speeding though a yellow light.

You say this like those same people won't leave it on stun

This might be the dumbest comment I have ever read on the Internet. That’s like 30 years of comments.

My status is in a relationship

Don't get any ideas buddy

If you're looking at the side of the car, you don't see them the same way as from the front. Which this whole discussion is about.

If you can see both turn signals from your point of view, current design works well enough.

Why not move to a place where low mobility doesn't cut you off from the rest of society?

There's plenty of retirement communities where you can get around with a golf cart. In the 3 biggest cities here in SK, old folk can ride the subways for free, and sometimes you even see them drive mobility scooters on.

Other places I've been have level boarding for buses, but I've never seen someone drive a mobility scooter onto one. Certainly it wouldn't fly in SK.

So risking everyone else's life around you is worth it?

There are now headlights that can be "high" but block out portions of the beam directed at light sources like oncoming headlights. Can't have them in the US though.

Here in France they drive at 70km/h in a 90km/h road. They also drive at 70 in a 70 road. And 70 in a 50 road. And 70 in a 30 road...

As a pedestrian this would be huge and make me feel so much safer.

i found a video to help you picture it better (https://youtube.com/shorts/ZD_34DxW_uI )

it really isnt that difficult

I know how flow lights work. But they still don't help you see better that a car is turning away from you, which is what this discussion is about.

Imagine a crossroad where a car is coming from your right side. You have no way of knowing whether they turn right or go straight, regardless of the way the lights work, because you won't see them.

as with a lot of tests, the thing a driving test is the best at measuring is how well you can take a driving test.

Another kind of solution. But not needed.
