word problem - Guess The Object - What Am I Riddle (Part 5)


Since part 4 is dragging it's feet, What am I?



Puny mortals, I control your very lives!
When I'm angry, you cease motion,

but yield to my envy,
Without me you descend into chaos,
I am never wrong, only long
Turn from me at your peril.



Hint:



In the city you see me every day.




Answer





A traffic light: angry (red) means stop, envy (green) means go
