Obviously I mean total blindness and not legally blindness, where some vision can still be there.

Lemmings that know a blind person can also pitch in.

        That’s a great idea, but I’ve never seen that before. I’ve only seen the dots

          Now that you know about it, i bet youll spot it everywhere (depending on country i guess).

          Look for them at traffic crossings, railways, bus stops, government buildings, all sorts.

            As far as I knew they are mainly to tell a seeing impaired person where not to walk into the street.

            They also seem effective at encouraging everyone else to step back a little

            But the dot version is standard where I’ve seen.

          They’re pretty common in Japan. The lines run one strip wide down the sidewalks, and then there’s a more spread out area of dots when you get to the corner of an intersection
