Not much crossing in Poland. Looks more like they be holding in their pee.
Poland is just like “Nah, walking is too exhausting, I’ll just keep standing around”
Belgium and Poland are weird
The Polish one looks weird 😂
Not totally correct for Germany. Germany has two versions. The one shown and the cute Ampelmänchen, in the area of the old GDR and lately West Berlin as well.
Ukraine, Belarus and Estonia following Russia’s footstep
What’s the story behind the Lithuanian? It’s just the Russian but reversed.
Ireland: Hey U.K. can we copy your pedestrian sign.
U.K.: Sure but make it look different so it doesn’t look like you copied it.
Ireland: Sure thing
Excuse me, but that’s just bullshit. Signs for “you may cross the street” for every country but in Poland there’s the opposite sign (“STOP”). Yeah, this is big brain time. Whoever did this stupid comparison is an idiot or wants to make fun of Poland.
Only Finland and Sweden have buttocks.
Direction of immigration?
In Greece he is called Gregoris. It is a pun on how you are supposed to cross the road fast (gregora). The red pedestrian person is also male, and is called Stamatis, from the order “stop” (stamata) in Greek.
I wonder if they have nicknames in other countries.
Everyone is just walking away from Poland😭
poland wtf
I love the Andorran pedestrian symbols. The red one look like he is actually trying to stop you. The green one looks like he is dancing like an egyptian.
In Poland people teleports they don’t need to walk.
Italian and Turkish one posing
I think Spain takes the cake. Seems the best designed one. Russia would be close but I don’t get the head.
Of course if western Europe walks one way in unison, the UK has to walk the opposite way.
I like how the British one goes left to right vs right to left and I’m thinking there must be logic behind this to do with traffic direction.
Then I see Russia. And Poland.
P.s where’s the nice happy worker dude from the GDR?
People don’t walk much in Portugal. They drive 🤷♀️ No walking paths and no culture of exercising. 🤷♀️
Eastern Germany: *visible confusion*
Finland is wrong, or at least old one. They still have some of them in use but they changed signs to gender neutral ones in 2020. Total and utter BS and waste of money.
The Norwegian one is my favorite. Kind of reminds me of that guy from AOL.
The Norwegian guy looks so chill. He’s strolling around. My fave !

This map uses the old finnish pedestrians symbol. The new one looks like [this](https://www.mtvuutiset.fi/blob/6624092/ddf893ed0a622d6c20d6bd56bd939c49/suojatie-uusi-data.jpg)
I think Norway is my favourite. No pressure to try to walk fast or determinedly, you can have a stroll here. Take your time.
The tall abstract legs on the Italy/Turkey/Albania ones weird me out.
next time this is reposted I get to be the one making jokes about Poland
Belgium is also wrong

Can’t believe every other country has the man facing the wrong way
Poland?
Polish people are suicidal
Why does everyone walk away from Poland?
Kind of describes the political situation 🤔
does spanish people dance instead of walking?
Germany do have other kinds too
I really wanted the Berlin Bears…
I had read somewhere that the former East Germany uses a different symbol – is that not the case?
Italy cursed af
Italy, Albania, Serbia, Romania and Turkey have the same symbol. And ex-soviets states are in the same situation
Poland is a toilet
epic repost
NOBODY CANNA CROSS IT!
Russia looks like ufo
A clear map showing which country is left and which country is right.
Just for clarifications: these are not the symbols on traffic lights (hence no Ampelmann), but it is based on the ones used for road signs, specifically the sign forbidding pedestrian from entering an area, like [this one. ](https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/5/56/Italian_traffic_signs_-_transito_vietato_ai_pedoni.svg/1280px-Italian_traffic_signs_-_transito_vietato_ai_pedoni.svg.png)
