Laws of the road for cyclists and drivers alike

Au contraire! We have them in the US, and we certainly don't pronounce them the British way. That said, not all Americans would probably call them a 'zebra crossing' anyway. To be fair, most Americans can't be arsed to walk anywhere in the first place!

Only in some States and they are generally given a quaint name such as "Ped-Xing". That is pronounced "ped-exing" and not "zebra" .
