Before roads needed traffic lights，railways had used signals(信号) to control train traffic．In early days，these signals included a ball and something that looked like a kite．When the kite was on top，it meant danger；when the ball was raised，it was safe．
In 1841，a developed railway signal was used at the London station．It included a signal arm in the horizontal(水平的) position which meant "stop"．The signal was painted red so that it was easy to see and could attract the drivers' attention．
At night，oil lights were added on the top．A red light meant "stop" and a white light meant the drivers could go on．
In January 1876，a train knocked on another train running ahead on the same roads，because the signals were not clear enough．13 people were killed in the accident and the others were badly hurt．
Then people changed the signal．The signal for "stop" became a red light and a yellow light was added to tell the drivers to drive carefully．In 1893，a green light took the place of the white light，because the white light was often mistaken for a street or house light．
Since railway signals were introduced，city officials(官员) decided to try them out on the roads of London．
