some zebras get crushed
Answer:
The danger comes from having them, not from not having them. Like most safety precautions the result of their use is counter intuitive. In this case pedestrians "know" drivers will stop to allow them to cross safely at the zebra crossing. As a result they give up the proper pre crossing habits of looking both ways and evaluating the hazard. instead they blindly walk into traffic without pausing. Drivers who are too close to stop collide with the pedestrians.

I would imagine that not having Zebra crossings would be detrimental to the welfare of the Zebra population as well as the property of those who hit them. I would love to see some Zebra crossings identified in my state Pennsylvania. I guess I'll write my congressman. Viper1

We call them 'pedestrian crossings' but we have different names for them depending on the exact type. For example a certain kind has black and white stripes, we call these 'zebra crossings'.
John Michael Bagley has written: 'Road accidents at zebra and pelican crossings'
Because the signal was green. Because he wanted to be a zebra crossing. (This only works in areas where pedestrian crossings are striped in broad black-and-white stripes and called 'zebra crossings').
