Unisignal


Yanko Design, the "Bloody Stupid" Johnson of the industrial design world, comes up with a "universal" traffic signal that won't confuse the colour blind.

The fact that we already have a universal traffic signal (Red at the top, amber in the middle, and green at the bottom) seems to have slipped Yanko's notice.

    I'm color blind. I don't have a problem with the existing traffic lights. Did they even ask any color blind people about this?

    We have trouble telling certain colors apart. This is because of a defect in our eyes. Not because we are morons.

    Anonymous, you aren't, the designers of this silliness are.

Rules for submitting comments:

1. No profanity. I maintain the pretense that this is a family-friendly site.

2. Stay on topic. A bit of straying and off-hand commenting is okay, but hijacking the discussion is right out.

3. No ad hominem attacks. Attack the subject, not the other person on the thread and keep the discussion civil.

4. No spamming or commercial endorsements. These get deleted immediately.

Tip: Beware of putting hyperlinks in your comments–especially at the end. For some reason, Blogger interprets these as spam.

Note: Due to the recent spate of anonymous spamming, registration for comments is now required.
