The supreme function and role of the STOP logo at road intersections have long been deeply embedded in the minds of every person who has driving experience in European and American countries, and have been coveted by Chinese road traffic scholars. However, for decades, although many STOP signs have been set up at road intersections, passing vehicles often turn a blind eye to them. They only exist because of certain standards and responsibilities, and are like a "decoration".

The STOP sign is a prohibition in the road traffic regulations of European and American countries. It should be noted that it is not a slogan of prohibition, but rather an execution of driving behavior, rights, and obligations. Any driver in motion who sees the STOP sign must completely stop the vehicle, regardless of the condition of the road intersection. During the 3-second parking time, confirm whether it is safe to pass through, or actively and consciously alternate passing through in order. This forced deceleration and parking scenario, in a dense road network or neighborhood, may seem to affect the driving efficiency of every vehicle, but in reality, it rewards every vehicle and more traffic participants with perfect order and safety.

Order is good, safety is good, and traffic is smooth. Although the road is long, it is approaching. 

Since it is so important and perfect, why hasn't the STOP logo been reused in China's road traffic environment? Simply put, it is roughly because:One is the lack of strict enforcement and enforcement (regulations, laws, and mandatory standards are not lacking);Secondly, excessive use of traffic lights and cameras has led to management dependence and luck;Thirdly, the methods and approaches used for setting up are not rigorous enough, such as the lack of warning signs or improper placement;Fourthly, there is a lack of understanding on how to cultivate good traffic behavior habits. 

Of course, due to the technical performance of traffic signs and road environmental conditions, STOP signs in European and American countries are not perfect.Mainly manifested in:One is that traditional reflective materials cannot make such a crucial STOP logo stand out, for example, good headlights are necessary at night, and it is always dim in rainy and foggy days;Secondly, it is difficult to avoid the obstruction of trees, and curved road sections are not conducive to visibility;Thirdly, lucky lawbreakers always exist and are difficult to identify and hold accountable. 

What should I do? Making the STOP logo prominent and intelligent has become a driving force for road traffic technology researchers in Europe and America to constantly innovate, and it is increasingly being applied, achieving excellent results. The United States: (Reference article: IOT luminous sign management can save money and lives).

The main methods are:

1、Using a Fresnel lens device, LED light-emitting diodes are embedded on the surface of the STOP logo, embedded at the eight corners, or embedded on the frame and stroke lines. LED keeps flashing continuously at a fixed frequency, and the flashing frequency and time period can also be set according to specific needs. The United States is incorporating this technology as an important part of V2X vehicle to road collaboration, widely used at intersections in schools and transportation arteries.

2、Set up lighting fixtures or warning fixtures in sync and at the same position as the STOP sign to enhance its "visible" function and compensate for its visual recognition defects. In the UK, this situation is quite common.

3、 Adopting the most advanced active lighting technology, the STOP logo is as bright as an advertising lightbox, with purer and more eye-catching colors. Since its invention by the Chinese brand "SKY TRAFFIC SAFETY", this active luminous logo has been characterized by ultra-low energy consumption, long lifespan, and ultra lightweight structure. When combined with solar energy and integrated circuits, it exhibits more perfect dynamic intelligence performance.

4、Imagine the STOP logo with built-in Chip and SIM, which can issue commands to the driver, transmit data commands to the smart car from a distance, and store and collect all its status and command data, providing value for use, maintenance, and management. This is exactly what the 'smart road, smart car' requires.

The Chinese brand "SKY TRAFFIC SAFETY" is promoting its new STOP logo and digital logo cloud platform concept and technology globally, striving for more project cooperation and opportunities, and striving to achieve more economical, efficient, and low-energy road traffic safety, empowering intelligent vehicles and autonomous driving.
