Our daily lives begin and end with travelling from one place to another, and living in today’s urban culture where cities and towns are populated with vehicles, the need for regulation and safety is of high importance. The first traffic light was introduced in 1968 to provide an easy way to monitor road traffic and ensure safety for drivers and pedestrians.

With just three colours, the traffic light helps people coordinate with each other; it’s almost subconscious behaviour that we stop at a red traffic light, slow down on a yellow, and go on a green traffic light. Having these standard colours apply universally, makes it easier for traffic lights and communication between drivers and pedestrians.

As the number of vehicles are increasing, it’s absolutely essential to have appropriate safety measures in place such as traffic lights to manage traffic. Just one traffic light is enough to reach a fleet of vehicles and indicate whether it is safe for them to go ahead or not.
