    Question: "Do the buttons do anything?"
    Video answer: "Maybe, maybe not."
    So basically I'm right where I was before watching the video.

    I don't know about any other country, but crosswalk buttons aren't about changing lights. They are able putting up the "Stop/go" symbols and keeping cars from turning so you can cross safely. Not about causing lights to go red, with the exception of light controlled pedestrian crossings.

    • @bmg1001

      Goabnb94 I live in LA and I walk home after school everyday. If I press the button, the symbol changed to walk and I have 30 seconds to walk. Without pressing, the symbol says stop and there is only 5 seconds.

    In smaller cities and lower, crosswalk buttons usually work. But in huge cities like new york they are pointless due to the mass amount of people. Were I live (small city) you definitely have to press the button or you'll be waiting forever, I've tested.

    In Sweden these buttons really always have an effect. Swedish companies make crosswalk modules for Finland and Norway also. I speak from my own experience.

    Even though I knew that they didn't do anything, I pressed them because people gave me looks when I just walk up to crosswalks and didn't do anything

    To answer the elevator buttons: Depends on the manufacturer.
    Schindler's do not work, or some might close barely faster if you wait for the up/down chime to play through. If they do work, it's usually because it was left in "Firefighter" mode.
    Otis: Generally do work.
    Dover/ThyssenKrupp: They do work, but after the up/down chime. Much more difference than Schindler's
    KONE: Generally do work.
    There's exceptions where they are disabled, or in Schindler's case, legitimately work (more so in newer installs).

    in my experience, elevator door close buttons, shorten the wait time, if a floor is selected, the full 3 to 5 seconds passes before the door closes by itself, when i press the button imediately after entering the moment it opens, the door closes after no more than 2 seconds, and this was consistent, the doors close slightly sooner if there are any floors selected in the car, vs their full time if none is selected

  • @Charles-ig6fr
    @Charles-ig6fr 8 років тому +2

    Thank you for this topic. It's refreshing to hear somebody say this out loud. I have *never* believed in the "Push to walk" buttons. I first noticed them in our downtown area when I was a kid growing up back in the [decade redacted]. Unfortunately for my placebo effect, someone had previously mentioned to me about how traffic controllers synchronized lights to streamline traffic. So after watching impatient pedestrians pushing the button two, three... six times before the light changed, I just nodded knowingly and figured: "uh huh, thought so." But no one has ever confirmed it for me before.

    • @dropmelon
      @dropmelon 8 років тому +2

      In some places, it's a placebo.
      In my country, it works depending on when is the last time it's pressed.
      If no one had crossed the street for a long period, the light would change immediately.
      But if we press it when a lot of people crossing the street,it would have a buffering time (I don't know what people would call it) before it can be used again.

  • @Im_Just_A_Dreamer
    @Im_Just_A_Dreamer 8 років тому +2

    Interesting how some crosswalk buttons in my hometown are placebo buttons, some crosswalks don't even have buttons but some require you to press the button before the "walk" light even comes on.

    The ones where I live work.
    #1 I have seen them broken and they have wires connected to them. If they don't then there would be no point.
    #2 The ones I use regularly never work unless I do press it. I'm tested it hundreds of times on my way to work
    On top of the fact the little white man never shows up unless I press the button and if I don't press it before the light turns red the little white man never shows up. Also I have 3 times LESS time to cross. So much so The light turns green before I even get half way across the cross walk.
    #3 50-60% of the time it singles to walk right when I press it.
    I've noticed it runs on a timer depending on how long the light is red in regards of when I press the button.

  • @MasterYoshidino
    @MasterYoshidino 8 років тому +1

    The crosswalk buttons working depends where you are. Near a local kids school the buttons work in real time and all lights go red so that children can safely cross. Near a mall the button only tells the light that a pedestrian is near by and to prolong the green light and cross sign which without the button would only last as long as a motor vehicle is detected via the wires embedded in the road near an intersection. Then of course the featured city where it is too chaotic and automates all signals.

    I was just talking with my manager about this yesterday, the usual AC can be set to 69 or 70. It does not mean the air coming out is at that specific temperature, that's just a cut off temp. I told him that is just a placebo effect on everyone that does not know that ACs are usually pumping at 55 all the time...

    Most elevator I use need the close button to be held for a second or two. But they really work because if you don't press it you'll wait for 5-10 seconds.

    • @cloroxbleach1200
      @cloroxbleach1200 8 років тому +2

      I used an elevator which always closed its doors the instant you touched the close button.

  • @simoneg8979
    @simoneg8979 8 років тому +2

    I've seen some elevator close door buttons work. I even tried it out. I got on an elevator and pressed the button for another floor. The door stayed open 9 seconds. I got on the same elevator and did the same except right after pressing the button for a floor, I pressed the close door button. The door closed in 4 seconds instead of 9. Probably the Disability act requiring the doors to remain open for a set time. The button can close the door, but an internal timer has to go off before the close door button signal is acted upon.

  • @jasexavier
    @jasexavier 8 років тому

    Most elevators now have, or are at least supposed to have, a minimum and maximum time the door will remain open. Pushing the door close button, or a floor button, will often close the door once the minimum time has passed. However, usually if you push the button before the minimum and do not press it again, the door will stay open for the maximum time.
    In the building where I work if you wait just long enough after the elevator door has opened, about 3 seconds, before pressing the button for the floor you want the door will immediately close. If you push the button right away after entering the elevator the door will remain open for about 10 seconds, unless you push the button again after the minimum.

      Insects are pretty intelligent (in that they process a lot of sensory data and communicate that processed information to one another), but we've never seen any research indicating that insects are capable of learning human languages, including codes like Morse code.

    In my town they work. The walk light doesn't come on unless you push it. We also have the ones that beep and say walk when it's time to go. Sometimes when it's already a green light it goes to walk RIGHT when you push it. And I was at a hotel where the AC Forsure worked. You could see the vent rotate when you turned it on and you could feel the fan blowing as well

    what causes this?
    why does it feel so good and relaxing.
    How come I can always get one started by looking into a chain link fence?
    I want to know.
    can I request Lauren as the host for this one.

    What I've noticed is that almost always, hotel elevators have placebo buttons. But on cruise ships, the close door buttons ACTUALLY WORK. And that is the ONLY place I have ever experienced a close door button working. (I think it has something to do with international maritime laws and all that garb).
    I have been on many ships, and been to many hotels, and this continues to be true wherever I go.

      There's a few crossings around here that are totally silent but have a little knob underneath that spins when the lights go green.

It had to be longer than five seconds it sat there and the button did nothing. A couple of times it would open after closing halfway and one of the other passengers would jab that thing like there was zombies running for the door and still it would hang open for an eternity before finally (on it's own) closing.

    The most fucken anyoing thing about cross walk in Traffic light, it his green for 5 to 10 minutes on the default road, you press the button and the cross walk does not turn on, and if you don't press when the default light his on red, you stuck waiting another 5 to 10 minutes on green, and sometimes when you press the button on red, it turn green and the crossing light for pedestrian does not turn on, even if the blinking left arrow wears off, if you walk on the left.

Ever been in an old folk"s home? They have the elevator doors programmed to stay open forever because they are imagining skeletor and the crypt keeper inching on with their canes and walkers. I learned quick you have to hit the button and the doors will try to close immediately, otherwise you sit and wait for eternity.

      Well, most elevators have doors open for longer than 3 seconds. I have even seen one that held its doors open for 15 seconds, unless you pressed the button

      You've clearly not been chased by unknowable horrors and had to use an elevator to escape while it rushes down the corridor towards you :P

    Why do the wheels of cars sometimes look like they spin backwards?

    I've always assumed the crosswalk buttons don't do anything. Why would you stop heavy traffic to let 1 person cross just because they don't want to wait for the signal?

    the close elevator door in my building might just be disconnected.

    By me crosswalk buttons dont work. Its hust a placebo effect. They changed the lights at one intersection and put buttons with a countdown timer but it doesnt change the light. It just says wait repeatedly and eventually a countdown

    I've never been in an elevator where the close door button doesn't close the door immediately.

    Hehehe. I've suspected this for a long time, I've stopped using the buttons at lights and looked for a better cross point for many years now. There's one particular crossing with buttons at the bottom of my street which I've written to the council and my MP about as it's dangerous because the computer controlled traffic at CAPITA will often stop on one side of this extremely busy road but not another, and it is on a bend where a driver turning left would not see a person walk out. But to my surprise no one has been killed there yet, I guess our evolutionary sense of danger really does work.

    If the button wasn't there, I wouldn't know there was a walk signal to look for! I'm visually impaired, so if I try really hard, I can usually see the walk signal (only by color of the light not the shape), but I hate standing somewhere for minutes on end trying to locate something that isn't there! I'd probably end up not waiting because I didn't know there was a walk signal to wait for. And blind girl plus moving vehicles does not equal happy!

      Do they not have the clicking sound on the walk lights where you live? I know they're not everywhere yet -- thought they should be.

    i got a question, why is there blood by my poo when i used the bathroom im thinking it's mh period or puberty cause i am only 10 and puberty bits at that time also they said harrmoids dont hit younger kids plys colon cancer js rare and jts onky there if it hurts. k think simply because theres something called a rear cut basically a small cut letting it kyt theres such thing as that in that body part besides its burns and feels like thees a cut there anyway. im glad that rear cuts heal quick and mostly dont heed surgury also if i have herrmoids they say drink lots kf water now i love water so thats even better!

      It's probably just a cut or a small cyst or a symptom of stress, but if the bleeding continues, definitely talk to your parent/guardian about it and see whether they can take you to a doctor. Any time that a wound doesn't heal and keeps bleeding (especially an internal wound), you should get it checked out by a professional just to be sure that everything's OK
