Crossing Flags in Kirkland, WA

I'm out in Kirkland, WA, this week to present AudienceGames to Advance08 at Microsoft. Had the morning free, so I decided to walk into downtown Kirland from my hotel. It's a really cute little downtown and the Irish bar is having a spring celebration tonight, so I'll know where I'll be later!

But, they also do this very strange thing where you pick up a flag when you want to cross the streets. According to the little box, 62 people were hurt or killed crossing the street without the flag and zero people were hurt or killed crossing the street with the flag, so I guess they work! A couple of times I saw all of the flags on one side of the street, but I guess it usually averages out.

Love traveling and seeing what other cities do!
