No Traffic Lights In German Town

A German town council has decided the best way to improve road safety is to remove all traffic lights and stop signs. From today, all traffic controls will disappear from Bohmte - a town used by 13,500 cars every day - and drivers and pedestrians will enjoy equal right of way. The idea of removing signs to improve road safety, called Shared Space, was developed by a Dutch traffic specialist and is supported by the European Union.
