Pedestrian Hybrid Signal 9-20-10by IndependentCC233 views
The study done in Arizona when these signals were being tested showed a 96% compliance rate with drivers over the course of a year... when all other forms, including the RYG standard traffic signal, were significantly lower. It seems that the main problem drivers have with the signal is remaining stopped during the flashing red sequence, whether it's safe to go ahead or not. Actual long-term studies have proven that this is much safer and more effective than other signal or beacon types.

@OfficerNelson The only problem with using a standard RYG signal would be how long a bulb or a LED unit lasts for green lights since no one uses the crosswalk signals. In a way, this is a better substitute as like I explained earlier, if you saw a flashing red or yellow at a 4-way stop, the HAWK is a combination of an RYG, and an FA or FY signal.

@Ryoukun16 Just use a regular R/Y/G signal. Eliminate confusion. I just know some driver is going to run someone over because they were confused and staring up at this silly signal. Yes, people are that stupid, and you have to design safety devices for the lowest common denominator in today's world.

@OfficerNelson The only problem with this scenario? It's not hard to differentiate between an RxR signal and the HAWK signal partly because of the design, but mostly because of the fact that THERE IS NO GATE. If people can't think like that, then the world is truly going to hell in a handbasket.

@Ryoukun16 The signal is poorly designed because it is inconsistent with currently-in-use signals. Railroad signals alternate in that pattern. Would you think "gee, that railroad signal is flashing like that HAWK signal I saw, I guess that means I can cross because there's nothing in the road"? It would be far more understandable if the two red lights flashed in unison, then drivers would understand that it is a "stop, look, and go" signal like every other single flashing red signal.

@OfficerNelson Rather, the idiotic drivers need to learn how a signal operates.

See how confused drivers are? The person that designed the HAWK should be smacked.
