Many traffic lights across the state were recently installed with LED lights.  The LED lights have many benefits over incandescent lights.  The most important of benefits is the ability to reduce energy consumption and save money.  The reduced energy consumption of the new lights have produced a side effect that is having many officials scrambling to find a solution.

The problem is that ice and snow are beginning to build up on these lights.  This was never an issue with incandescent bulbs as incandescent bulbs give off a lot of heat as a part of its inefficient energy use. The snow would normally melt,  however the new LED lights do not give enough heat to melt the snow.  Officials have stated that they are attempting to find a solution to this problem as soon as possible.

Police and other law enforcement organizations across the state are taking part in a program that aims to reduce the number of serious traffic accidents from occurring.  The program titled ‘Booze and Belts’ will attempt to increase enforcement and awareness of the issues surrounding drunken driving and seatbelt use.  These two issues are the main cause of serious accidents that occur on the roads.

Drunken driving is a major form of preventable accidents, and seatbelts are a major way to prevent deaths.

The program hopes to raise awareness and save lives of Wisconsin residents.
