    What are they used for? You just take one and wave it?

      That’s right, anyone crossing takes it, holds it in front of them, and crosses.

      (The flag reads “crossing in progress”)

      If they’re anything like the ones in Korea, they hire someone to be there during busy times, and whenever someone wants to cross, the person steps out with the flag and stops traffic. Usually in school zones.

      You just pick one up and carry it across the road and then drop it off in the little bin on the other side. The idea is that you’re more visible when you’re holding a flag.
