Pimp that noodle!

I think Shanghai is the first city I've lived in wherein the pedestrian green walk light will be on for the full 6 lane highway crossing even though not all lanes have a red light. This morning I managed to cross three lanes before I realized the fourth was a left-turn lane on green with cars ready and willing to not only plow through my theoretical green walk light but also to turn left directly into the other pedestrians behind me (because a left turn lane in Shanghai automatically translates into Let's Do a U-Turn Lane!)
