Form 24 AN ABSTRACT THE PURPOSE OF THE PEDESTRIAN WARNING SIGNAL IS TO WARN OTHER DRIVERS OF PEDESTRIANS CROSSING STREETS ETC. I INVENTED THIS DEVICE IN APPROX. 1965 WHEN A LITTLE CHILD WAS KILLED TRYING TO CROSS AN AVENUE, THE CAR ON THE RIGHT LANE HAD STOPPED TO ALLOW HER TO CROSS, BUT A TRUCK IN THE CENTRE LANE CONTINUED ON AND STRUCK HER, HE SAID HE THOUGHT THE VEHICLE IN THE RIGHT LANE WAS TRYING TO MAKE A RIGHT HAND TURN, I HAVE HEARD THAT SAME COMMENT SO MANY TIMES AND I WONDERED WHY DON'T THEY SOMETHING ON THE VEHICLE TO INDICATE THAT A PERSON IS TRYING TO CROSS. I AM FIRMLY CONVINCED MY INVENTION CAN PREVENT SUCH MISHAPS FROM HAPPENING AND LOSS OF LIFE. THE PEDESTRIAN WARNING SIGNAL IS CONSTRUCTED OF SHEET METAL IT WILL BE OF PLASTIC. IT HAS A RED PLEXIGLASS FRONT WITH THE LETTERING (STOP PEDESTRIANS ARE CROSSING) OR SOME SIMILAR WORDING OR DESIGN, THE REST OF THE PLATE IS SPRAYED WITH A FLAT BLACK PAINT SO AS THE LETTERING STANDS OUT CLEARLY, A HOOD EXTENDS OVER THE CASING TO KEEP THE SUNLIGHT OFF THE PLATE MAKING IT CLEARLY VISABLE DAY OR NIGHT, THE UNIT. IS ATTACHED WITH RUBBER CUPS AND A METAL PLATE BOLTED TO THE LEDGE OF A VEHICLE IT CAN ALSO ATTACH TO THE ROOF. THERE ARE 6 12 VOLT DOUBLE CONTACT BULBS, THE ELECTRICAL WIRING EXTENDS DOWN THRU THE CAR BODY AND EXITS AT THE DASHBOARD UP THE STERRING COLUMN TO A SWITCH ON THE STEARING COLUMN FOR FAST RESPONSE.
