    Traffic lights used to be arranged so that three light bulbs would be enough for two crossing roads. In one direction, red was on top and green on the bottom - the standard arrangement. In the crossing direction, green was on the top and red on the bottom. A single light bulb in each position was enough but it came with a problem: What if the driver was red-green color blind? In one direction, they would misread the signal. As far as I know, the last of these three bulb lights in Pennsylvania was in the town of Dushore.

    My mind tried to figure out what is specific about it being on the hill.. e.g. the semaphore in the middle of the hill would cause the cars to stop and they had to start uphill again.. or, when they were already talkin about colours, that it has to do something with the sun during some part of the day shining in such an angle on the hill that the people have no chance of seeing the colour on the semaphore (so they were frustrated from the amount of traffic tickets...)

    Well, that just screws over the color-blind drivers that go with the order of the lights, not the color....

    Ireland's colour is blue, St Patrick's colour.
    However the sports colour is green.

      @@wbfaulk en.wikipedia.org/wiki/St._Patrick%27s_blue I'm living in Ireland 60 years I'd have said green until a couple of years ago if asked. It's a fun fact, slightly irrelevant unless it's a state thing.

    This is definitely the most disturbing fact I've heard on Lateral--mostly because it sounds exactly like stuff happening today. People being easily offended at inoffensive things, people hating other people for their nationality or skin color, and taking out that hate on physical infrastructure. 😢

      Then please look up the history of Irish and Italian ghettos in New England in the early 1900s. And the history of the area with signs like “work wanted, Irish need not apply.” Please also look up the history of the Erie Canal, who built it, and its impact on our county’s history in regards to manifest destiny.
      As you said, many similarities to modern politics. “Those who refuse to learn from history are doomed to repeat it” and all. ❤

      From my understanding, most color blind people can still distinguish a red traffic light from a green traffic light even if it's out of its normal place - something to do with the shade of color make a noticeable difference even if you are red/green color blind.
