The Readers Write


Dear Ben: Regarding your item
the other day about the traffic
light at Winter Park thought |
would inform you that it works
through a meter system. BY that
I mean there is a jack spread
across the road going both north
and south and east and west. Now
as the traffic passes over this jack,
or release, it controls the light.
Therefore the more traffic coming
in any given direction the longer
the light will stay one color as q
continuous stream of cars will keep
the light tripped to the color ex-
posed to the greatest amount Of
traffic. I would like to point out
that it is possible that car would
fail to trip the light release and
that would account for the lengthy
waits. Hope this will clear Up the
mysterious workings of the
light.
Yours sincerely
a.. T. j. M.
Note
Thanks a lot T. J. NJ. but am
still wondering why the light will
stay green tho there is no traffic
coming in the direction in which
the green is pointing. How about
that?
