Traffic lights are operated by creatures who live inside them

I used to believe…

When I was little I used to believe that traffic lights were controlled by mice in a metal box next to the intersection and that they would jump on a big button for whatever color was to be next.

When I was little I use to believe there were workers under each street intersection controlling traffic by switching lights. Pushing the pedestrian button would choke them, making them change the lights quicker. I always felt guilty pressing the button more than once.

I use to believe hamsters controlled traffic lights. They had to run on a wheel all day to make the lights change at different times. I believed that for a while then I got smarter and "knew" that it was a guy in an office with a bunch of remotes that had red and green on them. He didn't need a yellow one because when he pushed red, obviously, it would turn yellow for a little while before it was red.

My dad told me that traffic lights changed color because a little monkey ran along the wires and changed the light when it was time. I believed this until I was about 7.
