Correct answer: D. An orange hand and a lunar-white walking figure, and only one of the two is ever displayed at a time
An orange hand and a lunar-white walking figure, and no — never both. HTA Regulation 626 requires the "don't walk" indication to "consist of an orange silhouette of a hand on an opaque background", and the "walk" indication to be "a walking pedestrian in lunar white". Book 12 flags both colours as deliberate departures from practice elsewhere: the hand "shall be orange (not red as per international practice)" and the walking figure "must be a bright ('lunar') white (not green as per European and some other international practices)." On showing both, the rule is flat: the walking symbol "must not be displayed at any time during which the orange hand ... or flashing orange hand ... is displayed." The two may share one lens, sit side by side with the hand on the left, or be stacked with the hand on top — but only one of them is ever lit.
