Traffic signs alert Swedes to smartphone "obsession"

Pedestrians who are glued to their phone while walking have become an issue around the world. Now, two Swedish artists in Stockholm have designed a traffic sign to criticize smartphone obsession.

The sign urges people to stop staring at their phones while walking in the street. The odd triangular signs, which depict a man and a woman with heads bowed as they stare at their phones, initially caused a stir in the Swedish capital when they first appeared around the city in November. Since then, news of the signs has gradually spread around the world on social media.
