I wouldn't want to be that guy.  And "smart" traffic lights? - that's a laugh. The only "smart" lights we have here in New York City photograph red light runners to raise revenue for our poverty-stricken billionaire mayor.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Another Gimmick?]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 23rd 2008 7:23AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on New Car Technology Guarantees Green Lights All the Time]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2008/10/21/car-technology-guarantees-green-lights-all-the-times/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2008/10/21/car-technology-guarantees-green-lights-all-the-times/</guid><description><![CDATA[This is absolutely ridiculous!  Many drivers turn right on red lights (it's perfectly legal at most US intersections), and I, for one, don't want to have to amble along at 10 mph behind some driver who is planning to go straight at an intersection when I am planning a right turn.  It will encourage illegal passing. tailgating, and will fuel road rage.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Ed]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 23rd 2008 8:44AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on New Car Technology Guarantees Green Lights All the Time]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2008/10/21/car-technology-guarantees-green-lights-all-the-times/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2008/10/21/car-technology-guarantees-green-lights-all-the-times/</guid><description><![CDATA[Haha, good idea, might work in Idaho, won't work in Boston, better off if it tells you where the next gas station is during rush hour, foget the light, you'll see it change so many times you'll think it is Christmas!!!]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[mick]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 23rd 2008 8:57AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on New Car Technology Guarantees Green Lights All the Time]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2008/10/21/car-technology-guarantees-green-lights-all-the-times/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2008/10/21/car-technology-guarantees-green-lights-all-the-times/</guid><description><![CDATA['Smart' traffic lights were developed to give emergency vehicles the power to change the lights in their favor as they approached intersections on their way to emergencies. If you start making even a portion of this technology availabe to the consumer market, it won't be long before everyone has the ability to change lights at will. ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Keith J.

Anyone who drives during rush hour will know that this is just useless.  Most of the time you'd have to be going about a mile an hour to reach the next green light.  I think it's just a bunch of hype to sell cars.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Pam in Maryland]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 23rd 2008 1:48PM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
