I used to think there were little people inside traffic lights who could see when a car was coming and it would make the light turn red, otherwise it would always be green.

When I was young I used to believe that there were tiny little men that lived in the traffic lights and that they would watch the traffic and change the lights according to how many cars were in front of them.

When I was little, I used to believe that there were actually people (actually monkeys) inside the traffic lights changing from green, to yellow, to red. I think I got the idea from old Flintstone shows.

When I was little, I used to belive that there were little tiny people that sat inside the traffic signals who would watch the cars in the intersection and decide when to turn the lights to red or green.

When I was about 4 or 5 years old.. I thought that mice lived in the stop lights. I also thought that they wore little uniforms.. (the mouse that worked the red light would wear a red shirt and red hat, etc.) I would watch many cartoons and I believed that the mice were toons.. It took A LOT of explaining for my parents to change my mind!!

I used to think that traffic lights were actually operated by tiny people who worked inside the wide base of each pole.

I used to believe that the traffic lights were controlled by small, elf-like men who worked inside the light, making it change colors and whatnot.

When i was little I used to believe that there were little mice flipping switches in the stoplight, and they would go up ladders to get to the yellow from the green and the red from the yellow etc. I remember telling my mom, and always wondered why she never answered back.

When I was about 4 years old, my dad told me that there were elves in the stop lights the would push the button when it was time for the car to go or stop.I believed this until I was 8.

I used to believe that they stuffed little babies into traffic lights, and they were the ones who changed the colors.

When my daughter was little she used to believe that there were tiny men inside the traffic lights that changed the colours each time the lights changed.

When I was 5 or 6, my brother was 10 or 11 and loved to say "i farted!" When ever he let one rip. Well for some reason, I thought that there were little boys in the stoplights that farted. Everytime it turned a color, a different boy would fart and his butt would turn that color. To me, the horns honking were the fart sounds.

When I was little, I used to think that there were little trolls sitting in the traffic lights, and they would shine their little colored flashlights when it was time for the lights to change.

I used to believe there were little tiny troll-like men who lived inside the traffic lights. I remember them: sitting behind a computer with several screens and buttons, etc. Man, were they ugly.
I also used to believe that red was stop, green was slow and yellow was go. Thank God I was proven wrong before I got my license.

when i was younger i used to believe that there were little men squished into traffic lights and they used to flick the lights on and off after they felt it was time to switch

Gretchen

when we were younger we use to think that there was tiny people in the stoplights that would press a button for it to change from red, green, and yellow.
