I live in Columbia SC, USA. I clean pools. Leaving my last job, headed back to the shop, I didn't catch a single red light. I made 58 consecutive green lights. From Kings Grant near fort Jackson along Devine Street, gervais street, sunset blvd to Pete Alewine Pool and spa. This was around 2:30 pm. Haven't come close since, it was a miracle.

In The Netherlands many of our ring roads that let you travel around/through a city work on a principle called a "Green Wave". If you accelerate and drive the proper speed limit of the ring road you'll reach the next traffic light when it turns green so that you can continuously travel on it without interruption. Any other roads however, tough luck and good luck getting green after green! Also if this was done here I'd do it at night because based on the commentary clearly yellow lights count as well and here most of the traffic lights are permanently yellow during night time with the exception of continuously busy roads.

@thomaswodarek1257

That's why I was initially surprised that they were getting up in the middle of the night. Around here, everything changes over to yellow-flashing or red-flashing lights overnight, because the traffic volumes just don't make sense to have traffic lights managing the flow of vehicles

@LarkspeedNL

Ай бұрын

You may have mostly yellows at night in your part of The Netherlands but in my part we have none. Traffic lights register the approach of vehicles so at night when there is light or no traffic on the road you would get green pretty well constantly no matter what speed you are driving at. if you approach a red and there is no cross traffic it will be green before you get there.

@LuigiLBL

Ай бұрын

Same thing here in Curitiba, Brazil. If I mantain a Constant Speed in the main ring roads we can Go 15km and more than 20 Green lights in a row.

@s1gne

Ай бұрын

Also in the Netherlands sometimes there are indicator lights that tell you if you are in the green wave or not. If you are not, just lower your speed a bit and you are in the green wave again. In the middle of the night some trafic lights where there is low traffic the lights get set to blinking amber lights, that means caution and normal crossroad rules apply (right gets to go first) but you can just drive on if there is no traffic or if you come from the right for other road user (so they are left from you).

“As a”…why do people start with that like it makes them sound authoritative? Why not just say, “I’m a truck driver in America…”. Besides, with no truck driving experience myself, I can promise that with every ounce of common sense, the best time to get a green streak in most places with well managed traffic light systems is super early…it’s not going to be 5pm weekdays is it?

​​@@X22GJPWell, I guess he has the right to feel like he has more authority / experience on the subject because most truckers do actually have a lot more experience driving on the road for long hours experiencing road traffics at any time of day compared to most other people who probably just drive to / from work at the same time every day. It's kind of uncalled for to react that way for someone just sharing their own personal experience... 😅

I wish my city had that guy's level of commitment to optimizing lights because in my city I think they're with the oil companies to make you consistently wait at every light to waste gas and have to keep accelerating and using more gas

@BiggestRedditor

Ай бұрын

I can assure you your city isn’t working with oil companies. Your city might not even have a room of people doing traffic lights throughout the day depending on how small the city is. Some cities are using AI and some cities just set them on timers that can’t be changed remotely. Traffic lights like this work based on averages and some days the path you’re taking takes you out of that and puts you in a category that they aren’t concerned with. When you’re getting frustrated at lights someone else is having a perfect run with them hitting every green. It was a 20 minute long edited video and you’re comparing it to what you experience daily. You think they don’t experience the same frustration with lights you’re talking about?

Between 1:00 AM and 6:00 AM in my hometown there is a series of traffic lights that used to remain green all night on Main St, unless someone actives the sensor on a cross street. People used to try and make it through all 33 green lights that were on this road without catching a red. I had heard of many people claiming to do it, but I never made it all the way to 33. The city changed how the lights work after there were a series of accidents from drivers running a red light in order to complete the run. No deaths, but there were some totaled vehicles. Some idiots just ruin the fun for everyone else.

I think we were promised the full run on the gaming channel. Not seeing it yet

Herron's an absolute dog for getting 43! Well done, sir! My best is 23, I was driving down through Reservation Road from Highway 1 in Marina, CA and got all the way down into Salinas. This was about 8 AM on a Saturday, so almost no traffic.

OMG your children are adorable, and never heard a child with an Aussie accent before, cuteness overload 😂

"Tortoise and the Hare," anyone? 😂

That was fantastic guys! Great stuff...and a change of pace from the norm. Interesting to see how you each 3 handle the challenge differently. Can we get another banger like this please!? #44

So glad to see some new content! I love this more then your regular stuff. Keep it up

I knew that it would be when there was little traffic. Because the lights keep green at that time. Great video guys.

I wonder if Gaunson ever read The Tortoise And The Hare as a child.

It's like watching a live episode of Bluey with those accents.😂😂😂

Keeps you guessing till the very end, wonderful work lads.

Editor Jack- excellent job! I really enjoyed the edit and storytelling of this video; we want more videos like this!

Great video. Thank for posting. Years ago I lived in a town where the university's computer controlled the lights. Once you got a green light you would get them all across town if you drove the speed limit. But there were not 42 lights.

That was sooo exciting! I didn’t think a traffic light run could become such a nail biter!! Well done boys, and excellent job, editor Jack!!! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻😎
