Saw this really funky thing at a small crossing near my house. You press a button and the signal for pedestrians turns green. Now how cool is this! But I am already thinking about the unbelievable misuse it might lead to as well. Also, the chaos if it is fixed at busy intersections - there will always be people wanting to cross the road and therefore, pressing the button and stopping the traffic. I am really curious how this can work efficiently and effectively.

Me first! :D
Okay now... give me this red batti near my place and I will be seen all over Delhi papers next morning! I bet! ;)
On a serious note...dilli mein ni chalega ye concept :D
hmm i think its a good concept.....it will make this city lil more pedestrian friendly....
abt how it works :-
u press that button and wait for 1 min (it doesnt turn red at same moment). After pressing the button, the timer starts and it also send out a voice alarm as 1 min comes to close, then light turn red for vehicles for a minute and u can cross ........this is good concept but it wont work at intersection of roads....but at stand alone crossing points like rajpath, jnu where its installed, it will do good for people....

Yeah, I tried it and noticed that it doesn't turn red immediately. But voice alarm? Didn't hear that. Even if it works at stand alone crossing points also it'll be great. A big example would be near my house next to Dilli Haat. It's almost impossible to cross that road sanely.
Hope this thing works, though I doubt it. You've already had a kinda bad incident (the auto wallah) with this thing, haven't you. Delhi drivers. Pff.

Hmm. I hope so too. But today only a friend of mine told me that it works in Chandigarh. Near all school. And you're fined if you don't stop at these signals.
Great siganl.:-)
That kind of thing will be good for VIP Road here.
