That makes me wonder if Janet Tutt ever uses the multi-modal paths. Carts, bikes and pedestrians never have and should not rely on the gates to let them know if cars are coming. As soon as cars/trucks activate the gate they come charging through, with no regard for what is on the path. It takes a lot more than six seconds to get across the roadways. We always look to make sure there are no cars APPROACHING the gate before we cross.
