The little pins are about an 1/8" or so high and they stick into the valleys between the nubs on the soles of the shoes. You have to lift up a little to get the pins out of the valleys. If you try to drag them across, the pins keep sticking.

And, I was at a busy intersection with limited visibility in both directions. I was just starting to cross when a car came flying around the bend to my left and I had to stop. I was on a side slope and a hill -- so I had to get a foot down real quick. My foot almost stuck to the pedal -- but luckily I got it down.
