Flashing Yellow Turn Signals Coming to Wisconsin

A new style traffic signal is starting to replacing the five section traffic signals throughout Wisconsin. There are many reasons, but basically they are much safer than the current signal lights according to an article posted on the Sheriff of Douglas County Wi.org. site.

A ten year study of the new system has shown fewer crashes, as drivers find the new system less confusing. In addition, the flashing yellow arrows control the flow of traffic much better, as they adjust themselves to the heavy or light flow of traffic.
