Man, we have lights here, durign rush hour, that if you are not on the main road, the light goes: red>>> Green, 1 mississippi, 2 mississippi, 3 mississippi, 4 mississippi, 5 mississippi, Yellow 1 missis, RED...
If your're lucky, 2 cars get to make the left turn... Nothing better than sitting at the same freaking red light, through 2-3 cycles...
Even though I hate it... I'll never move back to the country though...
No way, Jose'!

Yea they tried those here. Someone kept shooting them from behind in early morning hours when there was no traffic. After the third time they started patroling them to try and catch them, but could not. It became a game for several people to shoot them. Eventually they just gave up on replaceing them. So now there are several cameras poles where they use to be with no cameras. 
Got to love rednecks.
