First?
What you always ask your girlfriend after the two minutes of sex your able to give her.
i concur
i agree
I disagree
I don’t care.
Hi!
dumb pic. not as much fake as long exposure. this is not a fail. all you are fails
says the failkid.
You need a douche. Whatever this meenz, I caen speahk Enklisch.
This pic is not a fail, the signal is giving you the oportunity to choose !
fail at replying.
long exposure on tripod. just sayin.
Congrats bro! What shall you do with your winings?
first ??
ist doch klar… Prof. Paul…..
thats a conundrum now
This is very common in lots of European countries. The green light lights up when the red one is still burning.
It tells you that the other lights on the crossing are orange and that it is in your own risk to start rolling. The red light will dim shortly after the green light started burning.
- first fail! -
Wich countries are those? I mean… it’s always in your own risk to roll over a red light, no need to put a green light in top of that to encourage some drunk guy.
we in Latvia got alot of this lights. and thats normal, for sure!
Can the words “Latvia” and “Normal” survive in the same sentence?
can USA? survive with same sentance ?
DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD
handbags at dawn! meow!
Gary: Meoooow
Cheezburgers?
you made no sense.
hey this is soooooo true this spot is on the street sepulveda in long beach going towards east
Except, they weren’t in the same sentence.
only because the commenter has horrible grammar
No. There’s a period separating those two words.
there should be a comma there.
What does it matter who has good grammar or not? Don’t you people have something better to do than criticize others?
for once i agree with bush
*insert some “In Soviet Russia” joke about “Red” moving you forward*
fail at following through
Socialism fail.
Hmmm, fascinating….
You’re really interesting. Please tell me more about how traffic lights work.
south park ftw
should like mean “stop going” or “go stopping”…. it’s from italy btw
Shit! Shit! What do I do?!
Fire Z missiles!
WTF Mate?
Just a random comment. Nothing to worry.
I know what the line was, it was from the youtube clip End of Ze World, WTF Mate? was the next line in the clip…
heheh… I understood you Anonymous, End of Ze World is awesome! Hokay!
I should have reacted on this one, but I’m tired. Please excuse my sense of humour fail.
no dude you are Le Tired
I’m not honest but you’re clever
Round!
Square?
congratulations, you got the largest nesting comment award! xD
No, seriously, fire z missiles.
Current Events Win!
Ahhhh, Motherland!!!!!!!!
‘Bout that time, eh chaps?
Right-o
now the us is like “fuck, we’re dumbasses”..
Whos the “us”?
Roffles.
waffles!
Do a barrel roll!
To barrel roll, press Z or R twice!!
JUMP OVER THE WATER!

So, how did yer license picture turn out?
Certainly must be a Florida driver’s license.
go or don’t go?
to go or not to go that is the question
Please, don’t go.
Please, don’t go.
Don’t goooooo.
Don’t go awaaaaay.

Rickroll WIN!
hey Alchemist… get some sleep pills, lots of them.!
Should I stay or should I go?
If you go there will be trouble, but if you stay it will be double.
Damn! Should have read the rest of the posts. That’ll teach me.
no problem, as many men do suffer from red-green-blindness anyhow.
It just says: and make a jump to the left…
And then a step to the riiiii-iiight.
Put your hands on your hips!
And pull your knees in tiii~iight!
Boring. Just the result of a long time exposure.
I agree. Lame
AHHH!! What do i do? WHAT DO I DO!!!!!
Oh, ok ill turn left…..
You put your left foot in, you take your left foot out, you shake it all about. That really is what it’s all about.
Open source traffic signal – the choice is yours!
Morpheus?
Didn’t anyone wonder why this photo was made in the dark and the green light is “stronger” than the red one?
I think the orange light is down (maybe that’s the fail ?!?) and the guy who photographed this took a quite long exposure time during some seconds when the lights changed.
CAUGHT-win
No.
clearly yes. +1 for long exposure (look at the slight camera shake).
photographer fail.
Because it’s not at all possible that whoever took this was in a moving car, or what?
Either way, it wasn’t the light failing, it was the photographer.
I was thinking that. But then again, the background isn’t all that light. If it was a long exposure it should be lighter than that. Also, it’s also possible that the green bulb is just brighter than the red one (newer maybe).
It’s plausible. It’s easy to fake if you know what you’re doing, but it’s also easy to take a legit photo.
Green is naturally a brighter additive color than red.
Thanks Bill Nye.
Comment WIN! Hahahaha……..
what is mr. wizard’s take on this
it could indicate a fault, either that or tell motorists of the amber light in the perpendicular lanes
Long exposure, that’s all…
win
Should I stay or should I go? If I go there will be trouble. If I stay it will be double. An epic question from an epic band.
Should I FAIL or should I go?
The Clash reference WIN!
epic band??? WTF???
Damn it, Porchmonkey! You beat me to it.
This is our exit strategy for Iraq.
hahahahahahaha. political humor WIN!
Less confusing than the current one.
Actually, we have something similar here in the US that is almost never interpreted correctly by drivers.
A solid red light + a green arrow means to pull up to the intersection, come to a full stop, then proceed to turn. Almost no one actually stops and just turns through the intersection.
I would assume that this light means something similar (full stop, then proceed), they just substituted an arrow for the solid light.
Where is this? I’ve looked through the GA DMV manual and googled around and can’t find anything that says this.
In California, I believe those signals mean that people going straight have the red light while the people turning left can go.
But how does that work, if you have, say for instance a lane that can either turn left, or go straight. You have the first driver in the lane who is turning, so he goes.
The person behind him is going straight, so he stays. But what if the person behind him is turning? He can’t go?
Yup. Thats exactly right.
No, that doesn’t exist in the USA.
No it doesn’t. You’re a horrible driver, aren’t you?
It means everyone stop aside from the people turning left who are able to go.
You only stop before turning when the light is red and you’re able to turn right on red, unless there’s a green right arrow, then you can just go. Those lights are too short to have more than like 2 people stop before proceeding.
If everyone stopped at those green turn lights attached to red lights, we would have a shit ton more traffic than we already do.
You only stop of it’s a yield to oncoming traffic on green before turning left, but even then, you don’t have to stop, you just have to make sure you’re not going to be t-boned by a bus.
Actually, the light makes no recommendation to drivers in other lanes, though I was incorrect in stating it mandates a full stop. From the TX DL handbook:
“A Green Arrow showing at the same time as a Red Light
Proceed carefully in the direction of the arrow after yielding the right-of-way to other vehicles and pedestrians”
What you’re referring to is a full red light accompaigned by a green arrow.
his is not the case, this is definitely a fail traffic light showing both arrows with both colours simultaneously wrong. I know because I took the picture
Luca
Michael, that was a fascinating technical analysis. Perhaps you could come over to my house, we could have a few drinks, and discuss more electronic traffic control devices….
Hmm…it’s almost like a parent telling you to go ahead and do something after you’ve been badgering them to do it. So of course, when you do it, you get punished that much more for doing it.
Someone set us up the bomb.
Holy Smokes dude, now THAT is confusing! What to do? What to do? LOL

Panic and crash!Lol!
This is a night time picture, it require long exposition (1-10s). It is possible that the shot was started on a red light and then recorded the transition to the green light. So technically not a fail…
ur comment iz photoshopdz
and then the reason for taking the picture was…
… to see if the people running the site would actually post it.
ZOMG!
Teh Fail of no return!
So…….how do I get out of the ticket?
its just a long exposure. i’ve done something like this before
Not a fail people. Move along.
FFFFFFFFFOTERSHOPPT!
If I could show you the face that appears in my head when I imagine someone saying this, you’d be turned into mangos.

No, that doesn’t make sense. Perhaps you’re referring to both a full red light and a green arrow. But two arrows simultaneously wrong are bad
This is not photoshopped. I took the picture and it was taken with 1/4sec exposure, F2.8 shutter if you wondered. Unfortunately this is a true traffic light found in Viareggio (Italy).

Orange light? Do they use orange instead of yellow in Europe?
Looks like ‘long exposure’ is the new ‘photoshopped’.
jlj
I think everyone trying to interpret what the signal means must be from L.A. People here can’t drive for shit.
European stoplight. Means that the opposite lane is yellow/has just turned red, so, since 99% of the population there drives a stick, they can have the car ready to start moving again.
Someone commented that it’d be confusing to drunks– not if you grew up with it. Also, at least in Germany, you get your license taken away *forever* the first time you blow a .08 (.05 if you were in an accident). Kinda makes the expense of a taxi worthwhile.
We need that here in the US… instead, we fit the drunk’s car with it’s own breathalyzer, so they have to blow in it every 10 minutes or so, otherwise it kills the ignition. I almost got t-boned by a guy because he was at that very moment blowing into the tube instead of watching the road.
Yeah, that ought to cut down on a few accidents.
this is in italy, sure
lol i was there on the other side
the next commenter is gay
