City of Los Angeles syncronizes all it’s traffic lights

Los Angeles finally first at something useful 

With some of the worst traffic in america, it’s nice to know the city of LA acknowledges the problem and is looking to the twenty first century to resolve it.  Certainly a traffic light system that gives real time results of traffic information runs a pretty penny but if you can use that money to ensure your citizens stop trying to kill each other for driving down the road, it’s not a bad way to spend it.  At least someone isn’t funneling it off for their own personal gain.
