There are risky pedestrian controlled signals here too. The way they work is that if and only if there is a pedestrian waiting to cross, you slow down or stop your vehicle to let him or her cross the street. Then, without waiting for the green light to appear or the audio tones to end, you immediately start going again. Crazy, but it does seem to work. In the U.S., as in Germany I gather from Gerd's comment, you would be ticketed and fined heavily for that sort of behavior.
As for the painted "islands", I have always ignored those completely because IMO it would serve no useful purpose to map them. Maybe I'm wrong.
