Naomi Davies, who took the photo, said that there were as many as seven robots waiting in line to cross the road, but the traffic lights turned three times, and the robots still dared not move forward to cross the road.

On one occasion, a dog walked by the robot, and the robot hesitated and stopped.
Some netizens were curious about how the robot presses the crossing button of the traffic light. Naomi replied that the robot would talk to passers-by, and asked human beings to help press the button in a very polite manner.
