Answer 1

Answer:

zebra crossing

Explanation:

zebra crossing is a type of pedestrian crossing used in many places around the world. Its distinguishing feature is that it gives priority to pedestrians; once someone has indicated their intent to cross by waiting by the crossing, motorists are obliged to stop. These were introduced to the UK in the 1930s as a road safety measure and were marked by a pair of striped poles, each supporting a flashing orange light, known as Belisha Beacons. In the 1940s road markings were added to the crossing design: These were alternating dark and light stripes on the road surface. These stripes, resembling the coat of a zebra, give rise to the common name.The striped road marking has been adopted in many countries for their crossings for this purpose; however not all have the pedestrian priority rule, and not all use the term zebra crossing to describe them. In the UK, the term "zebra crossing" only applies to unsignalled crossings; these have largely been replaced by various types of signalled crossing which restrict the pedestrian's right to cross to particular time slots
