#136012 - Government rules
Responding to: ???'s previous message
Unfortunately, this does not seem to be the case. :-(
I have also noticed that a lot of the new LED traffic lights and road signs are soon showing failed LEDs (or groups of LEDs) - and that they remain in that condition for extended periods.

I think the trouble is probably that these things are being sold on the basis, "It's solid-state - what can go wrong?!"


Government rules: no bureucrat get fired for buying from the lowest bidder. That the equipment fails, because there was no evaluation before the purchase, is not the buyers fault (in government)
