At a midblock crosswalk, a signal head with two red lenses above one yellow lens is dark as you approach. A pedestrian pushes the button, and the beacon starts a yellow-then-red sequence. What should you do?
Blue A approaches a midblock zebra crossing. A north-facing pedestrian stands at the south curb by the push-button post. The hybrid beacon is in its yellow phase with both upper red lenses dark.
Correct answer: Slow down, stop when the red lights show, and let the pedestrian cross.
Why
Pedestrian hybrid beacons help people cross busy or high-speed roads at midblock crossings. While the drivers stop, the pedestrian gets a WALK signal. When the pedestrian has crossed, the beacon goes dark again and traffic moves on.
