I can see them behaving like disco lights in some areas

Also rather depends if you care about red lights.

**** knows but if I am going down the road being a good boy and keeping to
the limit why the **** should I be inconvenienced by some selfish **** who
2 yards before the line trips the lights and gets not just himself but
INNOCENT little old me stopped as well?

Some ****ing idiot in some ****ing traffic department has not thought this
through very well. So nothing unusual there then is there.

You really are, aren't you?

From the article:

?We welcome trials of technologies other than cameras to deter speeding
drivers and this sort of system is already extensively used in Spain and
Portugal".

They got some bright lad in to the traffic light department in
Sunderland in the late Seventies. He set the system up so you could get
successive green lights right through the town centre and out the otehr
side - if you hit them right.

Tragically, if you hit the first one as it changed while you were
rolling at the limit, you'd then have to accelerate to 35mph to get them
in sequence.

Pretty much guaranteed to be a camera to catch that.
