Researchers Suggest Adding A New Color To Traffic Lights -- Here's What It Would Be For
Transportation engineers at North Carolina State University have proposed that an additional color be added to existing traffic lights. This new color would be a white light, intended for the use of self-driving vehicles. This light is there to instruct autonomous vehicles (AVs) to direct the flow of traffic, while also telling human drivers on the same roads to follow the lead of the AVs around them. The objective of the additional traffic light color is to reduce overall fuel consumption and minimize the time it takes to travel through an intersection.
