There are bike lanes. There are fast and slow lanes on the roads. And now, at least for a while, there is a lane on the sidewalk for cell phone users.
The tape was created by the team of a TV show on National Geographic. The show, which is inspired by YouTube videos, looks at how people make changes in their behavior, Business Insider writes.
The team of the show wrote "No mobile phones" on the left side of the sidewalk in downtown Washington and "With mobile phones - go here at your own risk" on the right side.
However, the experiment did not seem to go very well. Many people who used their phones did not even notice the marking.
The only time people with cell phones paid attention to the tapes was to film them.
It is unknown at this time what he will do after leaving the post. People behind this experiment hope that it will prevent at least a few people from getting into an awkward situation or getting hurt.
They also warn people who want to write messages or talk while walking not to forget to be careful where they go, whether there is a separate lane for them or not.
