The streets were full of cars. The traffic was really bad. "Why not put three lights at each corner ? They should be red,green,and yellow," Morgan said , " Let them tell cars to go or stop." He made a timer  to change the lights. So we have traffic lights today . What color are the traffic lights ? They are.
