It’s funny how the lights feel like a slow waltz or a frantic tap dance. Maybe the city’s rhythm could use a softer beat—like a steady drum that syncs with our footsteps, so we’re all humming along instead of stepping on the wrong foot. What if every intersection had a little soundtrack that matched its timing? It might make the commute feel more like a communal dance rather than a solo sprint.

A 7/8 beat would be a real headache, but maybe if the cones had a steady pulse we could all keep time—no more surprise minutes off and a built‑in GPS that hums along with your engine. Just imagine Stanley the cone blowing a jaunty tune while we glide past.
