I came across one the other day. Halfway across the road, I realised
that the pedestrian signals were green in both directions and I could
safely cross in one step instead of two. It is rather annoying that
it wasn't more obvious when standing at the curb.

True - I've just noticed that we have one here in Balham, outside the LU/BR
station! Never realised before reading this thread!
