Solar powered signs work great in hazardous weather conditions like whiteout conditions from snow, rain or fog; therefore they would be perfect for a construction site or work zone.  These solar powered signs with the flashing LED lights are made of durable materials that stand up to being knocked over or accidentally dragged around by a truck or other vehicle.  Construction zones always have a lot of things going on and workers may not always be alert to watching where they are going or aware of a truck about to pass them because they have ear plugs and a hard hat on.  The flashing LED lights on the solar powered signs will help to keep a construction site or work zone safe from accidents.

Solar signs such as slow signs, yield signs, stop signs, traffic light ahead, children at play signs or pedestrian crossing signs are all equipped with the flashing LED lights in order to alert motorists who may not be paying attention.  Other solar traffic signs include deer crossing signs, heavy equipment crossing signs, danger signs, farm equipment crossing signs, hospital zones signs, school zones signs, work zones signs, reduce speed ahead signs or any type of metal traffic sign could be designed as a solar traffic sign to include flashing LED lights for more alertness from drivers and pedestrians.  The solar panel attached to the regular tin traffic sign with the LED lights becomes an energy-efficient life-saving piece of technology that not only saves lives but money as well.

Several research projects have been conducted to see what role certain distractions have on people as they drive and people would guess that cell phones would be the number one distraction; however it came in as number two on the list of distractions.  The number one distraction for drivers is eating while driving.  Although as of lately, texting on ones cell phone is becoming more and more popular with teens and young drivers which is a very dangerous combination and has been the cause of hundreds of fatalities over the past year or so.

Highway departments and city street companies could use solar light towers which generates large amounts of light in order to allow the workers to work into the night without using long extension cords or batteries to keep the lights on.  The solar light towers use solar panels to collect the energy to run the lights for a continuous 12 hours which saves the city and the highway department thousands of dollars in energy costs and taxpayer money.

Solar powered signs are a good investment for any city or town in order to save both lives and energy costs.

Solar powered signs are a good investment for any city or town in order to save both lives and energy costs.

Construction zones and highway works zones could benefit from solar powered signs because they not only save energy, they save lives.  Solar powered signs use the sun’s energy to generate three or four flashing yellow or red LED lights to draw attention to a sign in the hopes that a driver will heed the warning on the sign.

Solar powered signs such as solar powered stop signs, solar powered safety signs, solar powered warning signs and solar powered lights require no electrical outlets or long extension cords because they are powered by the sun’s ultraviolet rays, which is a free and renewable energy.  Every solar powered sign, no matter what it says, uses the sun’s power to generate a battery that helps four LED lights flash on and off which grabs the attention of drivers or pedestrians in order to keep them safe.

Many communities are switching their regular tin stop signs to solar stop signs because they are more cost-effective and help to save lives.  Solar stop signs use the sun’s energy to generate power to four red LED lights that flash on and off to make the stop sign more noticeable to those drivers who may be distracted.  The majority of smaller communities and small towns have maybe one main street that runs through town with several stop signs along its route and everybody knows where each stop sign is. However, if they are distracted, they could drive right past them without even thinking and into another car and possibly cause a fatal accident.  The solar powered stop signs are designed to help stop cars at an intersection where a stop is appropriate and needed.  The flashing LED lights are hard to ignore and can save lives.

Solar sign lights could be used at construction sites and highway works zones when nighttime work is required.  Even though the sun is not out, these solar sign lights will run for 12 consecutive hours on the power they gained during the day even on an overcast or cloudy day.  There is never a need for any type of electrical cord or outlet because the solar panels take care of generating the battery that makes the LED lights flash around whatever word or words the sign happens to have printed on it.  This is what makes solar signs so unique; the fact that they do not need anything but the sun’s warm rays in order to help save lives with their flashing LED lights and save energy by using solar panels.

Solar powered stop signs help save lives in addition to helping save energy costs for the cities that placed them in and around their communities.  Solar powered signs need no electricity; therefore there are no wires needed above ground or below ground because they run strictly on the sun’s renewable energy.  Solar powered stop signs contain four LED flashing red lights surrounding the word ‘stop’ in order to better attract the attention of drivers to the stop signs to the heed the warning and perhaps avoid an accident.

In today’s high paced society, many people multitask even while driving and this may mean talking on the cell phone, talking with passengers, reading directions or using a GPS machine, adjusting the radio or looking for CDs for the CD player or just getting caught up in one’s own thoughts about what needs to be done at home or work.  There are a countless number of distractions a driver could experience that would cause them to miss a stop sign or other traffic signs along the roadways and highways.  The solar powered signs with the LED flashing lights are made specifically for grabbing the attention of distracted drivers, or any driver, so that they see the traffic sign and adjust their driving appropriately.

Solar powered signs come in a variety of styles and shapes and could be custom made for construction companies, highway departments or power plants and other chemical plants or factories where pedestrians and heavy machinery share the same pathways.  Many of the general solar powered traffic signs are railroad crossing signs, slow: children at play signs, pedestrian crossing signs, and deer crossing signs, traffic signal ahead and directional traffic signs such as an arrow pointing north or an arrow pointing to the left in addition to many others.  Each of these signs contains three or four red or yellow bright LED lights which flash on and off in order to grab a driver’s attention.  The LED lights are powered through the sun’s energy and through the attached solar panels on each individual sign.

For construction sites, including highway departments, there are solar light towers which could be used when crews need to work at night or on overcast, cloudy days where they need light the most but don’t have electricity readily available to power a large light.  The solar light towers are made of durable materials that can withstand extreme heat or cold and tolerate localized shadowing from trees or temporary obstacles.

Solar powered signs, traffic signs and light towers all use the sun’s renewable energy to sustain flashing LED lights or a large light in the case of the light towers, without costing the community taxpayer money for constant electricity or initial costs to bury electrical wires.  Solar powered signs save energy and lives.

Workplace accidents are nearly impossible to avoid altogether; however they can be more preventable by using solar powered stop signs in order to alert pedestrians and oncoming traffic that someone may be driving by with heavy machinery or other large construction vehicles.

Solar traffic signs use the sun’s energy in order to work four flashing LED lights on the surface of the signs in order to help alert motorists and pedestrians to what the sign is “saying.”  For example, a solar powered stop sign has four red LED flashing lights near the corners of the sign surrounding the word stop.  When someone is driving and not paying attention, a flashing light will help divert their attention back to the road or to the sign in order to do what they need to do to remain safe and continue on their journey.

Solar powered signs used in work zones along the highway can alert oncoming traffic to a slowdown of other cars in front of them. For instance, a speed sign with flashing LED lights will be more effective than a regular speed sign in deterring speeding in work zones where highway construction workers have been injured at an alarming rate.

There are many distractions in a school zone when parents are picking up or dropping off their children and school buses are waiting to pull out in addition to children being everywhere and among the cars at one time.  Solar powered safety signs will help keep motorists alert to what is going on around them in order to keep all children safe from avoidable car or bus accidents.

Solar powered signs are good for the environment because they do not use electricity when helping to alert drivers or pedestrians to what is going on around them.  The solar panel is used to collect the sun’s energy in order to generate power for the four flashing LED lights.  The four flashing LED lights are what attracts the attention of pedestrians and motorists who may otherwise be distracted to the sign.  Many tests have shown that motorists are easily distracted by the simplest tasks such as talking - either to a passenger or on the cell phone - adjusting the radio or popping a CD in a CD player or eating.

Solar powered traffic signs save lives in addition to saving energy.  They are worth the initial cost because there is no cost greater than the loss of life due to an automobile accident that could have been avoided if someone had only been paying attention.

Solar powered signs near construction sites help to save the lives of construction workers, pedestrians and motorists.  Solar powered signs include work zone signs, danger: high-voltage wires, reduced speed limit, pedestrian crossing signs and stop signs.  These solar powered signs used the sun’s energy to generate four flashing red or orange LED lights that surround whatever the sign says.  For example, a pedestrian crossing sign has the traditional pedestrian figure walking across the street on a bright yellow diamond shaped sign and then has a red flashing LED light each of the four corners.  The solar powered signs use the sun’s energy so there is no need to run dangerous long wires from an electrical outlet to the sign.

Solar powered signs with flashing LED lights help to alert distracted motorist to what is going on around them; construction site workers who are driving heavy equipment could also benefit from a flashing solar powered stop sign or other solar powered signs.  When safety is an issue, solar powered signs can be most beneficial to everyone around them including pedestrians, motorists and construction site workers.  People can often be distracted by cell phones, car radios or their own thoughts.  Distractions make people oblivious to what is happening around them, and solar powered signs can help bring them back to the here and now and help save lives in the process.

Solar traffic signs can have a powerful impact on construction sites in which so many things are happening at once; a construction worker can easily be distracted by something going on in the distance and not pay attention to where they are walking.  By having flashing LED lights on various traffic signs, a construction worker can be more diligent about his or her surroundings because these flashing lights draw attention to the posted sign and help to keep a worksite safe.

In addition to saving lives, solar powered signs set at a construction site could impact a construction company’s insurance rates in a positive way.  By taking precautionary measures, such as using solar powered signs, a construction company could ask for a re-evaluation of their insurance premiums at which time a lower rate could be prescribed by an insurance agent.  Just as having fire extinguishers on site is a good idea, using solar powered signs could save the construction company thousands of dollars a year in insurance premiums.

A solar powered stop sign could save a municipality, city and state thousands of taxpayer dollars in energy costs by using the sun’s energy to generate power to flashing LED lights. 

A solar powered stop sign consists of four red LED flashing light surrounding the large word ‘stop’ on a traditional red sign in order to draw motorists’ attention to the sign so that they will be able to stop where indicated.  These solar powered signs cost next to nothing to maintain and run on a continuing basis because the LED lights last and last so they do not have to be replaced that often; the sun’s energy generates the flashing lights for up to 12 continuous hours so there is no need for expensive electricity.

In addition to the solar powered stop signs, there are many different solar traffic signs that alert drivers to warnings such as pedestrian crossing, school crossings, deer crossing, railroad crossings, danger: low bridge, danger: high voltage wires, danger: work zone, ‘stop here when flashing’ sign for a fire engine exit, yield signs, traffic light ahead signs and speed limit signs.

Pedestrian crossing and school crossings sign are important when drivers and pedestrians need to share the road.  Often times, drivers are not paying attention or can become easily distracted by their thoughts or something within their car like the radio or a cell phone.  The combination of a distracted motorist and pedestrians on the same road could spell disaster for both parties.  Flashing LED lights on a pedestrian crossing or school crossing sign will help to alert preoccupied motorists so that they are more aware of their surroundings.

Solar powered danger signs with flashing red or yellow LED lights could also help to warn distracted drivers of upcoming dangers on the road.  Research study after study has proven that distracted drivers kill people, pedestrians, other drivers or themselves. To help prevent these potentially deadly accidents, solar powered traffic signs are a good first step in prevention.  Drivers will always be distracted by something in the car, by something outside of the car or by their own thoughts; using solar powered traffic signs with flashing LED lights is one way to help bring a driver’s attention back to the road.

Most highways have top speeds of 70 mph; however drivers continually exceed this limit by up to 15 mph or more.  In order to accommodate an ever-growing population of people and roads, many highways now have traffic signals on them.  Solar powered signs could alert drivers well in advance of these traffic signals in order for them to be able to begin to slow down and eventually stop if the signal has turned to red.

Solar powered traffic signs and stop signs save thousands of dollars in taxpayer money, in addition to saving lives every day.

Marathon Petroleum has bought an additional (4) solar powered  signs.  Marathon Petroleum in Garyville, LA recently purchased and installed and additional (4) Railroad crossing signs.

The refinery had originally purchased (7) solar safety signs in October of 2007′.  Safety personal at the refinery said do to the positive feedback the received on the first units, they needed additional solar signs for their expansion.
