Traffic Light Peep Holes

I've often wondered what the other's traffic light is at an intersection. At some crossovers, its downright dangerous to not know if the traffic has a red light or not. Solution? Little peep holes all around the light's shield (I'm guessing that's what they're called). Lots of times you can see the reflection off of the light, and I'm sure this would greatly increase the opposing traffic's light visibility.

       Lots of brain farts today. I've heard its not safe to let it out all at once...

       Many stoplights have a ring around the top that illuminates when the light is red. This is designed for cops to easily monitor the light-running without needing a clear view of the signal.
