MANY motorists are unaware that the traffic lights at the cross junction of Jalan 16/6 and Jalan 17/1 in Petaling Jaya, Selangor are operated by a sensor, leading to unnecessarily long queues.

The sensor is designed to detect the presence of a car that stops at the white line there. If no car is detected, the traffic light system will bypass the green light turn.
