We would all save millions of liters of gas!
And time!
In fact traffic lights would be way superior to stop streets.

The world has the tech to do this already.
This not only deserves it's own thread, it deserves a campaign where we all INSIST on it's implementation!
You have been driving on Reno's ring road McCarran? 20 years ago, you could circle all day never stopping if you were driving 43 mph and caught the first light green.
