The Impact of Uncertainty on Pedestrians’ Decision to Start Roadway Crossing during the Clearance Phase by Milan Simeunović, Andrijana Jović, Pavle Pitka, Mladen Dobrić

“…Clearance phase at signalized crosswalks is an important parameter of pedestrians’ safety because it helps them to complete the crossing before the green signal for vehicles. However, there is the issue of pedestrian decision as to whether to cross if they arrive at the crosswalk during the clearance phase, which represents a violation in many countries. …”
