There should be a green traffic light alarm fitted as standard in all cars.
When traffic lights turn green, the alarm sounds inside the car alerting the driver to go.
This would be useful for those who are distracted at red traffic lights by.....picking their nose, falling asleep, eating lunch,
reading the newspaper, applying lipstick etc.....

I have one of these, it's called my horn. Welcome to the hb [canny]. |

I thought that was why God invented the cabby behind you. |

Guilty as charged ... Welcome, [canny]. |

It seems you've gotten off to a great start! |
|
| |
Optional alarm sounds - Chirping, (like the pedestrian signals) or Beatles (Baby, You Can Drive My Car). |
|
| |
A useful add-on - warn the driver of an approaching red light. |
|
| |
Some intersections have different signals for different lanes (usually the turn lanes). At such intersections, the device might have to say "You're on your own." |
|
| |
Foghorn attached to traffic light? |

When I lived in Athens in the early 80's many traffic lights were mounted on street corner posts. If you're the first car in line, you'd rely upon the horn behind you as a "courtesy". Every change of light is celebrated by the choir. It's funny as hell. I could have used something like this. |
|
| |
Will this help prevent me from stopping at traffic lights and waiting for them to change, only to realise they've just changed to red? |
|
| |
If you need one of these, it probably won't help you! |
|
| |
Hmm... if the signal emitted a low power signal, received by a unit on the dash, which gave an indication of timing... naw, I'm thinking dangerously again. |
|
| |
People that are falling asleep should not be awoken and told to drive... neither should dozy drivers! |
|
| |
they should be left sleeping and the incident reported to the police |
|
| |
then the person should have 12 points deducted from their drivers license and then severely beaten by people that have been hit by dozy or sleeping drivers ... trust me you CAN NOT drive while you are sleeping don't even think of trying it |
|
| |
The amount of attention that one gives a traffic signal is the amount of attention that one gives to their driving |
|
| |
pay attention!!! it isn't a break, If you miss the light you should be subject to the consequences |
|
| |
Things to do at lights.... |
|
| |
2 Watch for people that are about to rear end you |
|
| |
3 watch for ambulances and other emergency vehicles |
|
| |
4 Monitor traffic as to avoid someone hitting you |
|
| |
5 watch for people running from the cops |
|
| |
6 sipping coffee or another caffeine saturated drink |
|
| |
Beside, in order to hear the alarm you would have to turn down your malevolent music that you are inundating your fellow commuters with |
|
| |
7. extinguish cigarette burning in one's lap having dropped it at 60 mph on the M1 |
