Default Reduce Traffic - Turn left on a RED

In article , Jeremy Parker
writes


also switch off pelican crossings after say 00.30 as people
have a habit of pressing the button as the pass them not intending

to cross

anymore ideas?


In the USA they often turnoff traffic lights at night. When off one
direction flashes yellow - that's the major road. The other
direction flashes red - flashing red means the same as a "stop" sign.

Also done in some areas of Switzerland.

In Eastern Germany, at certain sets of lights, a sign exists permitting
you to turn right when the light is at red if the road is clear of other
traffic. Seems to work OK - it's a hang over from the days of Communist
East Germany.
