Yes, most likely this won't be required. However I have kept it there in case it works differently in other countries. Maybe not all zebra crossings in Singapore have belisha beacons (for example, I don't know if this is true). That is why I am leaving it open for discussion for now, if after the RFC it is decided that this is a bad idea I'll remove it.

Thanks,

>> Here is my first proposal for a tag to describe pedestrian crossings where the pedestrian has right of way over all vehicles on the road from the moment they have indicated their intent to cross. I created this because "crossing=zebra" or "crossing=marked" aren't clear enough. Please read the proposal for more details.
