"Germany Installs Traffic Lights In Sidewalks..."
"
So That Smartphone Users Don't Have To Look Up"
When the officials in the city of Augsburg noticed how people never looked up from their smartphones and ignored traffic signals, they decided to do something about it.
Hence came the invention of installing traffic lights right into the sidewalk. The genius idea was based on the premise that pedestrians wouldn't have to tear their eyes away from their phones while crossing a road. They can continue using their phones and won't miss the lights in the sidewalk.

They must be walking on eggshells over there... with all that unpopular migrant business.
The red double decker bus looks more like Jolly Ol'
Not to mention the language of the sign.
And the London Taxi, but details, right?
I used the second photo from the article.
It's not Germany.
The first photo, presumably Germany, seemed austere.
Photo captioned... thanks for calling it to my attention.

Bad move. Let natural selection take its course.
Don't raise the bridge, lower the river.
Someone should explain to them how it's not the lights that run you over.
Just put camera's at the crosswalks and post the videos on You tube. Squiiiish.
Hmm, how can we waste taxpayer money AND expand the protective bubble around nitwits who vote for bigger government?
This is very anti-Darwin. If someone doesn't have the goddamn sense to look up from a fucking phone amidst tons of oncoming steel then evolution demands that they be the first to eat a chrome bumper.
