In this Saturday, June 24, 2017 photo, pedestrians use the rainbow crosswalks at the corner of North Limestone Street and Short Street during the 10th annual Lexington Pride Festival at the Robert F. Stephens Courthouse Plaza in Lexington, Ky. The rainbow-colored crosswalk honoring the LGBT community in Lexington is a distracting safety hazard and should be removed, a federal official says. Officials painted the crosswalk at the busy intersection across from the county courthouse earlier this year to coincide with the annual gay pride festival. At the time, city officials said the crosswalk would be safer because it would better catch the attention of drivers. (Alex Slitz/Lexington Herald-Leader via AP)
