American crosswalks are just insane. In Europe cars are not allowed to drive through the crossing on the "walk" signal. In the US the pedestrian is expected to run the gauntlet, hoping that turning cars will see you and not mow you down. Pretty sure this is what is going to kill me, and that's in one of the more pedestrian friendly cities in the country, San Francisco.
Keep the button, but for goodness sake stop letting cars drive through crosswalks in the "walk" phase.
