為上班不遲到 美國(guó)男子讓紅綠燈隨心變
日前，美國(guó)一名男子因偷偷使用改變交通燈信號(hào)燈的裝置，被指控涉嫌妨礙交通信號(hào)并被處以50美元的罰款。
A man who said he bought a device that let him change traffic lights from red to green has received a $50 ticket on suspicion of interfering with a traffic signal.
據(jù)美聯(lián)社4月17日?qǐng)?bào)道，這名來(lái)自科羅拉多州朗蒙特市的男子名叫尼克姆。為了在驅(qū)車(chē)上班途中不被紅綠燈耽誤時(shí)間，他在網(wǎng)上購(gòu)買(mǎi)了這個(gè)價(jià)值100美元的交通信號(hào)燈改變裝置。他說(shuō)：“我上班總是遲到，在使用它的這兩年里，它完全物有所值�！�
Jason Niccum of Longmont told the Daily Times-Call that the device, which he bought on eBay for $100, helped him cut his time driving to work.
"I guess in the two years I had it, that thing paid for itself," he told the newspaper Wednesday.
上月末，警方發(fā)現(xiàn)尼克姆使用一個(gè)類(lèi)似頻閃燈的裝置來(lái)改變交通信號(hào)燈。這種裝置又被稱(chēng)作Opticon，與消防員應(yīng)對(duì)突發(fā)事件時(shí)改變信號(hào)燈的裝置相似。最初，該市的交通工程師們注意到，每當(dāng)一輛白色福特車(chē)經(jīng)過(guò)十字路口時(shí)，所有的交通信號(hào)燈都會(huì)中斷信號(hào)。
Niccum was cited March 29 after police said they found him using a strobe-like device to change traffic signals.
The device, called an Opticon, is similar to what firefighters use to change lights when they respond to emergencies. It emits an infrared pulse that receivers on the traffic lights pick up.
Niccum was cited after city traffic engineers who noticed repeated traffic-light disruptions on certain intersections spotted a white Ford pickup passing by whenever the light patterns were disrupted.
朗蒙特市交通工程師奧爾森指出，他們計(jì)劃在今年更新該市的Opticon系統(tǒng)，查處那些未經(jīng)許可擅自使用的改變信號(hào)燈裝置。
City traffic engineer Joe Olson said traffic engineers plan to update the city's Opticon system this year to block unauthorized light-changing signals.
