Total Crisis Panic Button

Total Crisis Panic Button by Jason Eppink

Some crosswalk buttons in LA have been labeled Total Crisis Panic Buttons. According to the artist:

The Total Crisis Panic Button initiative replaced Los Angeles crosswalk instruction signs with more relevant and useful instructional graphics. (Nobody walks in Los Angeles, and who doesn’t know how to use a crosswalk anyway?)

I can’t think of anywhere in Seattle that has signs for a crosswalk push button (not even a sign with a slightly less authoritarian bent), but maybe I just overlook them. This is an open thread.
