There are many benefits of the Eko light, the main ones being:
Less pollution. Drivers can turn their engines off and cut carbon emissions while waiting for the green light.
Less fuel consumption. Turning off your vehicle while waiting on the traffic light can lower fuel consumption in the long run.
Less stress. Since you know exactly how long you have to wait you can sit back and clear your head for a while. No need to keep your foot on the gas. Relax.
Safer driving. With the Eko light both drivers and pedestrians can be fully aware of how much time they have left before the light changes and that way reduce the chance for potential traffic accidents.
The Eko Light was designed by Damjam Stankovic. Check out his website for many more fantastic design inventions.

Can they also put a little sign on it saying ‘Please indicate’ as 99% of drivers seem to be incapable of doing so.
