Welcome to Solar Traffic Systems v
 
A solar powered traffic stop sign with the capability of enhancing any intersection just by mounting onto an existing sign post. The stop sign has multiple function modes that are designed per your specifications, and you can also program them in the field with easy switch technology.
Bring traffic compliance and awareness to any intersection within minutes of mounting the sign.
With a "Go Green" national campaign underway, a solar powered stop sign using only power from the sun to illuminate the sign will show your commitment to this cause and help save lives and reduce property damage.
 
Even in the most remote areas, where power is not available, this sign's impact will make people react just to the flashing LEDs with curiosity as to what the sign is ahead.
The purchase of 1 sign can save thousands of dollars in traffic accidents. The attraction of the bright flashing LED lights will bring attention to the distracted driver up to 2 miles away.
