The Dancing Traffic Light

This Dancing Traffic Light Is a Brilliant Idea

We all hate waiting. That is why many pedestrians don't have the patience to wait at the traffic light, preferring to cross whenever they deem fit. To increase pedestrian safety, an idea was born: What if we make the red pedestrian traffic
light so entertaining, people would be happy waiting? Here is what happened with that idea...

4. The dancing traffic cop..........

He not only directed vehicle traffic but also pedestrian traffic. When I was a kid and Mom took us downtown, there would be a chance we'd see Officer Cianca doing his duty. I remember once Mom said "Maur don't cross the street". Then Officer Cianca said "Maur stay there, until I say go."

5. what a great idea

i wonder where this was filmed.

i imagine most people wanted to cross the street to get into the dance booth and have a turn at it.

they should make a portable machine that does that and use it at wedding receptions. or prom. or dance clubs.
