346.38 Pedestrian control signals. Whenever special pedestrian control signals exhibiting the words “Walk” or “Don’t Walk” are in place, such signals indicate as follows:

346.38(1)

(1) Walk. A pedestrian, or a person riding a bicycle or electric personal assistive mobility device in a manner which is consistent with the safe use of the crossing by pedestrians, facing a “Walk” signal may proceed across the roadway or other vehicular crossing in the direction of the signal and the operators of all vehicles shall yield the right-of-way to the pedestrian, bicyclist, or electric personal assistive mobility device rider.

346.38(2)

(2) Don’t walk. No pedestrian, bicyclist, or rider of an electric personal assistive mobility device may start to cross the roadway or other vehicular crossing in the direction of a “Don’t Walk” signal, but any pedestrian, bicyclist, or rider of an electric personal assistive mobility device who has partially completed crossing on the “Walk” signal may proceed to a sidewalk or safety zone while a “Don’t Walk” signal is showing.
