Touch it with your elbow. And don't walk around with your hands in your pockets near traffic, it's bad risk management.

Makes sense for the big buttons, but some of them have tiny ones with a little rain hat, inexplicably. Why don't they all have big buttons, which are much easier to push?
We just have these stupid unpressable buttons near me. They're big with an embossed arrow on them, but if try to press it it might budge a quarter of a millimeter. I still don't understand how they work, if they're supposed to be capacitive or just have really tiny press windows. But they give zero satisfying feedback that you've successfully pressed the button. I hate them so much. And if you hit them hard they will murder your hand.
We have some that don't move much, but the make a beeping noise when you hit them, and an LED lights up.

In Australia, they all do have big buttons.
