END OF RED LIGHTS THAT'S A SMART CAR: SENSORS MEAN THE
soon this will not be seen ,,,,
Audi is testing a system known as 'Traffic Light Assist' that shows drivers exactly how far away their next red is - helping them to time their drive to minimise stopping.
The display, in the dashboard in front of drivers, shows a traffic light icon with a countdown timer that reads the number of seconds before a light changes from red to green.
It shows the driver the speed to select in order to reach the next traffic light during a green phase.
Acoustic signals also warn the driver in advance of red lights.

The system is linked into a city's electronic traffic light network, and can even take into account lane changes.
Local data from city councils who install smart traffic lights and motion sensors in the car are used to predict exactly how long it'll be until the green light goes red.
Audi has been testing the new technology in Ingolstadt and Berlin in Germany, as well as in Verona, Italy, and has also set it up in Las Vegas for the CES show.
In the traffic light phase assistant project in Frankfurt, 20 traffic light systems in the vicinity of Frankfurt am Main were retrofitted so that the test fleet could communicate with them.
