Do we really need traffic lights at 3.00 in the mourning ?
Answers:
We ought to adopt the system used in France, the USA and numerous other countries, where at quiet times ALL the lights at a junction flash orange, giving no-one the right of way, and everyone must exercise caution.
This avoids needless delay, red-light jumping, and saves time and frustration.
Before the loony anti-motorist lobby starts shouting about safety, this system has proved to be much safer than using the normal traffic-light sequence on a 24 hr basis.
Of course, this could never happen here, with idiot politicians not wanting to lose the income from traffic light cameras.
yes..people don,t stop driving just because its dark and late at night
Just maybe at 3.00 in the morning when possibly people are tired when they are driving, or worse, drunk or high on drugs, despite there being little traffic, just maybe the change of the lights could be a life-saver when a driver who might be a threat to other drivers, at least complies with the traffic lights.
Interestingly, I have seen locally some speed-control signs that flash up with "slow down", or the speed limit, have a solar-panel on top of them, and are run entirely on the solar power. Maybe there is a way forward there, although I do not know how feasible that is with large sets of traffic lights at huge junctions.
That`s true, they should all be flashing at that time of day.
Without traffic lights at intersections at all times many people would definitely be 'mourning', the loss of loved ones!
yes, people still drive at 3 am, just because your in bed, doesn't mean everyone else is.
Yes! There is always some traffic think of people who work 24 hour jobs. Police, doctors and nurses and so on. Imagine the chaos if all traffic lights switched off and two or more of these night workers were to meet at an intersection at that time of night who whould decide who has right of way?
I think that if you are in 'mourning' then traffic lights will only add to your grief. Perhaps you should 'mourn' at home, and when you have come to terms with your loss, have a drive in the 'morning', and see how you feel to be back in the world again.
I have found 'mourning' in the 'morning' to be of the most help, 'mourning' in the afternoon doesn't seem anything like as beneficial.
Mourning, morning, noon and night is too much. Leaves one feeling deflated and exhausted.
