How not to get killed crossing the street

FOOL 'EM in 3D! https://media.mnn.com/assets/images/2017/11/Screenshot_Floating_Crosswalk_Iceland.jpg.653x0_q8 0_crop-smart.jpgBut as Trylla tells Quartz, he has noticed a difference: “What is clear so far is that it has received a lot of attention and people are for sure driving differently over this crossing, even if they’re eventually getting used to seeing it. So in that way, I would say that it’s a success so far.” https://www.mnn.com/green-tech/transportation/blogs/eye-popping-floating-crosswalk-iceland-slows-traffic (https://www.mnn.com/green-tech/transportation/blogs/eye-popping-floating-crosswalk-iceland-slows-traffic)

My old Art tutor would paint the most realistic little pairs of scissors, 'hanging' from nails on the classroom cupboard doors... then delight in asking pupils to "Fetch me a small pair of scissors, please"

Surely this illusion will only work on a one-way street?

edit: just read article, disregard dopey question above.:oops:

Yeah, but if you're looking at it from the other side, then you're on the wrong side of the road. Tell me when you're taking your 'Class C' driving tutorial... so I can stay in

Edit: too late
