Saw an ad by North American Traffic for a portable traffic light and
remote control flagman.  Neat devices and should be very helpful at
construction sites.  The flagman device had an semaphore arm with a
flag that presumably goes up and down, just like the those LA traffic
signals seen in old movies.

The one problem with all these devices--or human flagmen--is that
motorists may not expect them and breeze right by 'cause they're not
paying attention.

Construction sites have some pretty nasty crashes by motorists not
paying attention.

why not have a swing arm.... with strobes on it...and a swing-out nail
board?
