Or people who press the button THEN check the traffic, see it is clear then cross over before the green man has started. They get to the other side of the road and then the green man comes on.

In my little home town they made 1 street 1 way from a T junction meaning no vehicles can come from the right but as i remember it before it was 1 way i still look both ways...
