Default Dancing traffic lights

Something new for Villagers?


This Dancing Traffic Light Is a “Brilliant” Idea!


Sound up...............




We all hate waiting. That is why many pedestrians don't have the patience to wait at the traffic light, preferring to cross whenever they deem fit. To increase pedestrian safety, an idea was born: What if we make the red pedestrian traffic light so entertaining, people would be happy waiting? Here is what happened with that idea...
