The irony of this is that Mike Rowe has an entire episode called Safety Third. The point being that some jobs are inherently unsafe, but have to get done. So we keep safety in mind, but it can't be the top item. And Safety First is such an overused and ignored concept, but Safety Third sounds odd and makes one think.

Tipperary Hill in Syracuse, NY, a very Irish neighborhood has an upside down traffic light.  Green (Irish) on the bottom wasn't acceptable having the red (British) over it on top.  Kids hit it with rocks etc., finally the town flipped the lenses.

It takes a certain brand of idiot to get that upset over something that small.

My take is, colorblindness must be fairly low in those of Irish descent.

I worked with someone who was full on colorblind, he said he just watches what other traffic does and worst case, he watches the light's location if he can see it.
