Pedestrian Signs In Different Countries

This map is pretty lighthearted. Since there are no agreed-upon international rules for pedestrian signs like there are for the colors of street lights, each country is free to go with its own version. This map shows the version used by every country in Europe. Most of them are pretty similar, with a stick figure either walking to the left or to the right, but there are some outliers.
