Although LED traffic lights save tax payers a bunch of money, they are also causing traffic accidents because they can’t melt snow. I can’t help but wonder why no one has thought of covering the lights with Plexiglas?
"The police officer told me the new lights weren't melting the snow. How is that safe?" Many communities have switched to LED bulbs in their traffic lights because they use 90 percent less energy than the old incandescent variety, last far longer and save money. Their great advantage is also their drawback: They do not waste energy by producing heat.
