What could be the use of traffic lights?

I have been wondering what the use of the traffic lights we see on our beautiful streets could be yet it is always the traffic police men doing the traffic lights’ work.

I have been wondering what the use of the traffic lights we see on our beautiful streets could be yet it is always the traffic police men doing the traffic lights’ work.

If the lights are faulty, the government should be aware and work on them than having useless things on the road yet with a lot of human errors due to tiredness and stress under the scorching sun.

It would not be realistic also to have them spoilt without an explanation for failure to have them repaired. We need them to avoid the risks against those policemen who stand in the middle of the road.

Policemen are human beings, they can make errors in their work through wrong calculations and judgments, they some times forget the queue they last let to leave and allow the same vehicles to pass after letting one more queue to go.

There are some drivers who wait and get tired. Wondering what the policeman is up to they start hooting. They have always complained of the errors made by these traffic controllers and we should also not forget a naughty driver can ran into a traffic officer intentionally

If traffic lights have a problem, work on them and let the traffic be easily controlled electronically and save our policemen of huddles of keeping their arms in the air all the time.
