	Pegasus crossing - Biocrawler
		A Pegasus Crossing is a type of pedestrian crossing in the United Kingdom which has a special consideration for horse riders.
		Normally, they are in the form of a pelican crossing but simply have a control panel slightly higher up so that people riding horses can reach the button easily, and the "Green Man" and "Red Man" pictograms are replaced with horses.
		Additional features include wooden safety fence, and a wider crossing so that the horses are further away from cars than normal.

	Zebra crossing
		A zebra crossing is a type of pedestrian crossing, characterised by stripes (hence the term, named after the zebra) on the road, parallel to the flow of the traffic, alternatingly a light color (usually white) and a dark one (fl, or, if the road surface itself is of a dark color, just that).
		In the United Kingdom the crossing is marked with beacons on either side of the road, called Belisha beacons, These are the fl and white poles topped by flashing orange globes.
		This is in contrast to a similar crossing, known as a pelican crossing (Pedestrian Light Controlled), which is marked with traffic lights for the vehicles and a green and red man lighting up to show pedestrians when to cross and when to stay.

	Pedestrian Crossing - How 2 deal
		At some pelican crossings there is a bleeping sound to indicate to blind or partially-sighted people when the steady green figure is showing, and there may be a tactile signal to help deafblind people.
		The Pegasus crossing is similar to any other light controlled crossing, but in addition to provision for pedestrians (as at a Puffin Crossing) and/or cyclists (as at a Toucan crossing) the Pegasus crossing makes special provision for horses.
		Drivers approaching a Pegasus crossing is made aware of the crossing because of its traffic lights and zig-zag road markings.Iron railings are usually used to stop pedestrians and horses entering the road away from the crossing

	Pedestrian Crossings (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
		Crossings are safety features designed to keep pedestrians where they can be seen, by motorists, and where they can cross safely against the flow of traffic.
		There are a variety of different crossings, these may consist of road markings and beacon poles such as a zebra crossing, however, on busier or faster roads, more sophisticated crossings are used consisting of electric lamps or light-emitting diode (LED) panels with a button to trigger the signal.
		There are informal crossing points such as pedestrian refuges with drop crossings, and often tactile paving to assist pedestrians cross the road, or there are formal crossing points where vehicles are expected to stop to allow pedestrians to cross in front of them.

		HONOLULU Coming in swiftly and silently, almost ghostlike as it streaked victoriously past Diamond Head under a moonlit sky long before dawn Monday, Pegasus 77 very much resembled the mythical flying horse for which it is named.
		Ultimately, Pegasus 77 swooped back north along the same basic line as Pyewacket and "covered" a lead that at one point stretched to 77 miles.
		When all was said and done, Pegasus had negotiated the 2,225-mile crossing from Los Angeles to Honolulu in 7 days 16 hours 31 minutes 17 seconds -- nearly five hours ahead of Pyewacket.

	DES - Pedestrians (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
		Pedestrians at Pelican crossings only have priority to cross whilst their signal is on steady green but do have ‘right of precedence’ to complete their crossing during the flashing green (flashing amber to vehicles) stage.
		Signalled Crossings (which are Pelican, Puffin-type or Toucan) have been incorporated into the signalling arrangement at junctions, where the red phase for drivers includes a signal aspect for pedestrians crossing at the junction.
		Pedestrian crossings are generally placed on busy roads, their function being both to assist pedestrians to cross roads and to do so in greater safety.

		These may be, for example, at-grade pedestrian crossings, foot- and cycle-bridges, underpasses, cycle paths and lanes, use of semi-redundant parallel routes as cycle routes, and dropped kerbs and signing.
