What does the number on a pedestrian countdown display in Québec tell pedestrians?
Correct answer: How much time remains to cross the intersection.
Why
The countdown shows the time remaining for the pedestrian crossing. It must be read with the accompanying symbol. With a flashing orange hand and a countdown, a pedestrian may start only if able to reach the opposite sidewalk or safety area before the hand becomes steady. Without a countdown, a flashing hand means no new entry. A steady hand means wait.
