Abstract

Concerns have been voiced that pedestrians do not fully understand the meaning of the flashing signal. There is clear evidence that motorists, at least, have a good understanding of the flashing pedestrian signal. The two groups of most critical importance from the point of view of coping with signals are the elderly and children. The testing carried out in the present study used only those two groups. The experiment was intended to determine which colour signal and which flash rate was most effective in conveying the intended message to children and elderly persons.
