The latest in misguided ways to make kids safer from cars (I think this really is not a joke). Some guy here in Switzerland "invented" a chip for kids to carry that connects to some blinking light when they approach a crossing. The light, which is no legal sign, so does not force the car to stop, then flashes.
How do people come up with stuff like this? I mean if it would at least create a barrier for the car, that would at least start the intervention at the right point.

@mario_angst_sci Dazu kommt, dass Kinder ohne Sender deutlich stärker gefährdet werden, weil sich Autofahrende auf das Blinklicht verlassen. Statt nutzloser bis gefährlicher Technik wäre hier eine Aufpflasterung der Querungsstelle deutlich sinnvoller.
