Red means go, in Mao’s Cultural Revolution

Red means go, green means stop in Mao’s Cultural Revolution


In Mao’s Cultural Revolution days
A communist leader one day mused
Why are traffic stop signs red?
They should be green – the color of the capitalistic roaders
And red should mean go forward with communism
The decree went out leading to total traffic chaos
That ended after the Cultural Revolution ended
And order was restored to the traffic light system



INTERNATIONAL TRAFFIC LIGHT DAY


This day is to commemorate the installation of the first
electric traffic signal system in the USA in Cleveland, Ohio on August 5, 1914.
The day also promotes the importance of traffic lights.
