It only updates every 30 seconds, so you need to sit there for a while.

I know. So I'm thinking -if I can persuade Hector and it's not tipping it down, he and I will be using that crossing around 4:10. Anyone avaialable for screendump duty? We'll count how many cars don't stop for us.

I'll look for you. Again, I can't be counted on, but I'll try.

That was the only red van that went by. And the window is rolled down, so maybe she was hanging out of it and the camera missed her.

You see that huge pack of people going by? Poor white car had to wait almost a minute for all those pedestrians.

It was some sort of street gang. Note the yellow gang clothing.

The Ann Arbor 'burbs are notorious for street gangs, yo.

edit: Hey, you can't even see the sign in this picture. It can't be totally obscured by that car. No wonder people hit it when it disappears and reappears like some Cheshire Stop Sign.

We parked off to the right of the camera, walked back, crossed, waved and held up a sign, crossed again, went back to the car and that was us headed home.....
