What is a "no pedestrians crossing"?
A no pedestrians crossing sign is a traffic sign that indicates pedestrians are not allowed to cross a particular road or intersection. This sign is usually placed in areas where it is unsafe for pedestrians to walk, such as busy roads, highways, or locations with limited visibility. The sign typically features a symbol of a person walking with a line crossing through it, signaling that pedestrians should not enter or cross the area. Drivers should be alert for pedestrians in areas where this sign is not present, and pedestrians must follow the sign to ensure their safety.
