When I was 5 or 6 I used to believe there were itty bitty people living inside the stoplights that worked in front of a huge control panel (think what pilots look at while flying) that were in charge of changing the lights from green to yellow to red and vise versa. (I also thought they wore headsets to let each other know it was time to turn the light)
