Animated Construction Worker Sign Directs Traffic

An animated road work ahead sign that looks like a worker waving a growing stick at the drivers. Taken in Japan.

Thoughts: Does Japanese drivers response to humanoid signage better than wordy ones? What is the history of Japanese road work signs? How well does it work in day time vs. night time? Weather? Low visibility conditions?
