  • they have those in mcminville tn. i guess theyre pretty rare. i havent seen them anywhere else.

  • Must be sparks flying in the traffic box!

  • thats fake with the flashing normal goble lights cant flash that fast an as well dont try saying its a Led light cause led do flash fast but pertty bright an i know this is a goble light an one thing red goble light r not red as much as the led's are

  • @GayBoyRunning Actually, what you saw was not fake. The traffic signals use xeon strobes.

    The purpose of the xeon strobes in the traffic signals is to make them quite noticeable from a distance.

  • @Steven197981 to flash like that it doesnt look right

  • @GayBoyRunning I understand. Xeon strobes were common to find in many red indications of traffic signals in some parts of the country. If I am not mistaken, M.U.T.C.D. outlawed them. Despite that, some are still in existence, such as in some parts of Pennsylvania, for example. I have seen a handful myself. Rather interesting, yet unsuccessful in the world of traffic control.

  • they have those here in greensboro NC

  • it supposed to gain driver's maximum attention. They put similar in my area. take a look at my vids. I have those light there too :)

  • it is supposed to make people think the police are at the intersection so cars won't run red lights

  • that was weird.

  • Am these in Spain or not?

  • we have some of those in PA...but not that type...those look weird...and we dont have the thing in the middle either...

  • Yeah, I just put up a vid of one in my area, take a look.

  • by any chance, is that in or near Myrtle Beach, SC?

  • Actually it is. I saw it on one of my pictures that I took. I thought that it looked awfully familiar. This is on South US 501 Bypass at the intersection US 501 Bypass and Alternate SC Highway 41, just Northeast of Marion in Marion County which is about 50 or so miles away from Myrtle Beach.

  • that was weird

  • Looks like a Unilight red light "strobe" retrofit. The white strobe around the red light is suppose to get your attention to the red light.

  • that little thing is supposed to get your attention? i almost got a seizure just by looking at it!

    that should be considered a danger to traffic safety!
