Turn traffic lights green

[techb]

Found on HaD. Break into comm systems of traffic lights. I am assuming US only, but hardware like this is probably used everywhere since it's a niche market.

I don't really pay any attention to traffic lights when I drive . This could come in handy if I move abroad but still has the potential for abuse.

There are no traffic lights where i live, so no problem here .

Kulver if anybody but you said that, there would be so much hate right now.
So much.

OP: Neat article, thanks for the share. Just how difficult do you guys think it would be to get one of those cards?

There is a problem with this; it's what emergency vehicles use to change the lights to keep traffic moving so that they can get where they need to.  Using this has a good possibility of causing a conflict such that emergency vehicles needing to use it won't be able to.  I stress awareness, caution & careful forethought.
