Exactly - I came here to vote and there was no option I could agree with.
Why not do like every other developed country I've been to: use temporary traffic lights?
I came to this country and was baffled and amused to see people standing at either end of roadworks with no other job than to turn a little stop/go sign around, like the late 20th century hadn't happened yet. Like the police detail legally required at my wedding - it's nothing more than an employment scheme (and in that case bordering on a protection racket).
