Years ago, the buttons in my town were simple things that gave no feedback, and many of them were broken and stayed broken.

Just about all of them have been upgraded to buttons that beep and flash when you push them. It's very obvious when those break, and so the buttons are now maintained much better.

    What you mentioned was exactly what happened to me. I was literally a MINUTE walk from home and the button just WASNT doing anything, and the street was insanely busy. I was waiting for 30 MINUTES before I legit called my mom to drive like 300 feet to pick me up. It took 1 minute.

    I was scarred from walking much ever since.
