Good Day, all.
I have a question for the legal eagles on this.... in that :
Is it not legal for a pedestrian to cross on a green traffic signal,
ie: that a walk/nowalk signal is only a convenience add-on for pedestrians
(sidebar - and sometimes actually adds time to the green
for pedestrian safety at especially large intersections ),
without having to make use of the beg button ??
I wonder, since I have done exactly this many times
(which for me is a wonder in itself, being ex-Montreal).
Thanks, all.
