"LED Lights Causing Traffic Problems in Winnipeg
The City of Winnipeg is like a lot of us that want to use the latest technology and save some energy while we're at it.
However, this time it was a really bad decision to go with LED traffic lights because they don't produce enough heat to melt the snow that piles up sometimes. 
So what was a money saver is now going to cost them more because city crews have to go out and manually clean all the converted traffic lights.
This is one of those times where new tech isn't the right tech for the job.
Last year, new LED bulbs in Windsor, Ont., were blamed for a crash when a school bus ran a red light and broad-sided a car in an intersection. 
Six kids, a school staff member and the drivers of the car and bus were taken to hospital.
Police said the bus driver claimed the red light was covered in snow."
