In this video we'll be taking a brief and condensed look at the history and story behind our traffic light signals. We see and use them everyday but did you ever wonder what the first traffic lights looked like and when they were installed? I did... here's a video about it.
Traffic lights were a design evolution of the railway signal so in some ways todays road based traffic lights are down to the railway. And traffic lights actually pre date the car... who knew. The first set was erected (snigger) in London but we couldn't make it work but the guys in the United States could, installing their first traffic light in Cleveland Ohio.
