Imagine you are crossing at a pedestrian light and you see a vehicle coming at speed. For an instant you wonder whether he has a foot on the brake?

Somebody needs a hobby. This is stupid! A moose? A pedestrian? I don't care what color any light is or where it's mounted, you never ever step out in front of a vehicle until it slows way down or stops and you'd better have eye contact with the driver.

Example: Many people ride their brakes, and this will give the fools who walk out in front of moving vehicles a false sense of security. Oh gee, he's braking, as they go under the wheels.

Just like when I see a vehicle braking in front of me because something has run out ahead, I want to see the second an oncoming vehicle’s brake lights come on too. And though I want to be sure i am seen and a driver is braking for me as a pedestrian. The people behind the driver get to know he is braking, but for me to want that same information is “stupid”. I guess it should be just on a need to know basis right. Let me guess, you also think using you turn signal is only for stupids as well.
