Traffic lights are operated by creatures who live inside them

I used to believe…

When I was little, I used to believe there were little people who lived inside the traffic lights. That they decided when to change the color. And when they did, they would hold up a card with the color on it. Then people driving in their cars would drive until the little people changed the colors. I was disappointed when I found out the truth.

I used to believe…

It's obvious why traffic lights are always located at intersections. There is always a small building at the corner of the intersection (about the size of a gas station food store) in which the two little men live who control the traffic lights for that particular intersection. When they see the traffic is letting up, they can safely turn the light red without any accidents. After an allotted portion of time, they would turn the light green again.

When I was small, I thought that there was some sort of small creature that lived inside the traffic lights.he was the one that had to switch the lights on and off but he was alway trying to sleep so an alarm clock would go off to wake him up so he could change the lights

I used to beleive that the traffic light was operated by a old scientist, that lived underground with a robot, so my dad would say " The traffic light HATES me" i would think that the man underground would make my dad late for stuff.

I used to believe that there were little guys that sat in little tiny labs underneath each and every stop light that changed and coordinated the stop lights. I can't remember if I finally just realized it wasn't that or if I asked my dad w/o letting on that I actually didn't know.

I used to believe that all traffic lights had elves inside of them controlling them. The elves would keep an eye on how many cars were stopped at a red light and then make the light green when it was their turn (and vice versa).

I used to believe…

When I was like 4 or 5 I used to think that there were tiny little people that sat inside traffic lights and controlled the traffic, so whenever we had a green light and just kept going I would turn around in my seat and thank them.

I used to believe…

When I was little I used to think that little garden gnomes worked underground with lots of big computers controlling the traffic lights.

It seemed like common sense to me.

I used to believe that there were little men in the light psts that turned the light red, yellow or green.

I used to believe…

When I was younger I used to think there was a little man who turned green, yellow, and red switches on an off at a stoplight. I thought that when we had to wait forever at one he had turned on the red switch and went to sleep. I don't know where I got this belief from.

i used to believe that there were mini man inside traffic lights that fighted over whose turn it was to push there button

i used to believe that the way traffic lights changed colour was by a little man living inside the traffic lights. every time the colour changed i thought he had moved, i.e if the lights were red he was standing inside the red light, if the lights were green he was standing inside the green light.

I used to believe…

when i was small, i used to believe that a tiny elf sat inside the stoplight and that he pressed certain buttons to make the green and red lights come on

i used to beleive that at the stop lights, that there was a little man inside of the light, who would see if there were any cars coming, and if so he would turn the light green or red.

i used to believe that when the traffic lights turned from green to red, there were little men inside watching the intersection to change the lights when there were cars coming.

I used to think that inside of stop lights were little elves that would make the lights change color.
