[nagdu] Moving sidewalks

I was told moving sidewalks are dangerous because it's hard to tell when one 
is coming to the end, so one doesn't know when to tell the dog to jump over 
the place where the sidewalk goes into the ground.  On an escalator, I can 
tell when we're coming to the end by keeping my hand on the rail, but maybe 
moving sidewalks don't have a rail.
It made sense to me, so I've always avoided moving sidewalks.
