§ 35-103. Pedestrian-control signals.

Whenever special pedestrian-control signals exhibiting the words "walk" or "don't walk" or symbols of "walking person," or "upraised palm" are in place, such signals shall indicate as follows:

(1)

Flashing or steady "walk" or "walking person." Pedestrians facing such signal may proceed across the roadway in the direction of the signal and shall be given the right-of-way by drivers of all vehicles.

(2)

Flashing or steady "don't walk" or "upraised palm." No pedestrian shall start to cross the roadway in the direction of such signal, but any pedestrian who has partially completed his crossing on the "walk" or "walking person" signal shall proceed to a sidewalk or safety island while the "don't walk" or "upraised palm" signal is showing.
