Don't walk.
One way this way.
One way that way.
Usually traffic signs are clear about what to do. They keep us on track. They keep us safe.
But there are times that you get conflicting messages. That's when you have to look around at the potential hazards and make a decision. You draw upon what you have learned in the past. You consider where you need to be in the immediate future.
Is it best to stop? Is it best to go? This way or that way? What will keep me on track? What will keep me safe?
Don't just stand on the street corner waiting for one sign or another. Sometimes it won't be clear no matter how long you wait. Assess the situation. Go or don't go. This way or that way. Make a decision. And then, whether it was right or wrong, learn from it and make an even better decision next time.
