Green is associated with GO or accelerating. These learned people are mistaken with suggestion of a green brake light. Just use a red light up front, drivers already know what the color red means!

So are there any other vehicle signal systems cramping your style ? or you just came to take your little dump and leave rather than describing in detail how this is a bad idea and why iyou conclude any good it could do would demonstrably be outwieghed by harm.... sorry lol wasting my breath

No. as you can see it is open source and can be used by anyone. But you want to be nasty huh?

No the green signal is accurate. it tells you that the car is stopped or stopping and that if you decide to do so you can GO

The article gave me an idea . Instead of red brake lights, have them green. They stay on when you are NOT breaking and go off when you do . LEDs last a long time so make the green lights out of that.

Keep your green front brake lights in Canada. I’m not yet convinced high rear brake lights help at all.

This article came out almost 13 years ago and I have never heard of this. Seems like a bunch of nonsense to me, like that couple that goes all over the country trying to make the case for a 10 hour clock.

So you think light speed communication through traffic signals is bunk? You think it has no effect on your reaction time and your being able to accurately interpret what is happening around you?

And you gratuitously slam Canada. Good ol’ Freepers!

Look. You set yourself up for ridicule and laughter. You come here posting a 10,000 word article that should have never been posted, but if it must be, then a 1000 words or less would have been fine.

So after doing this, you have the nerve to snark at Freepers who think you’re goofy? What ever.

It was published 13 years ago because it would be hideously evil to withhold it with the hope of later commercializing it. it is too big an idea. say I sat on it and people died in the meantime? I published it to the world all those years ago and the government and car companies told me that though a fine idea, the future was self driving cars. It was a good idea then and is still a good idea now. Even a self driving car should be foreced to show people it is stopping even from the front!!

"Should we forego all signal lights on roadway vehicles because you are super?"

Ah yes!
That statement exhibits the same type of twisted thinking that McConnel & National Review exhibited today...

A 1% decrease in the present worldwide collision population would achieve the same result ...
