What is a pedestrian sign?

A pedestrian sign is a type of traffic sign that is specifically designed to alert drivers of the presence of pedestrians and to prioritize their safety. These signs are typically placed at crosswalks or areas with high pedestrian activity, such as school zones or busy intersections. Pedestrian signs can vary in design but often feature a graphic of a person walking or a simplified silhouette to indicate pedestrian activity. The purpose of these signs is to increase driver awareness of pedestrians and to encourage drivers to yield or stop to allow pedestrians to safely cross the road. In addition to the graphic, pedestrian signs may also include text or symbols to convey specific instructions, such as "yield to pedestrians" or "no right turn on red." Overall, the purpose of pedestrian signs is to promote pedestrian safety and reduce the risk of accidents between vehicles and pedestrians.
