Shedding Light on a Dark Day, by Robin Meriwether
On May 19, 1780, the skies over New England turned dark in the middle of the day. For more than two hundred years, New England's Dark Day had been shrouded in mystery. Some blamed volcanoes. Some suggested supernatural events. Some claimed it was a sign from the heavens. No one knew for certain what happened. Many thought the mystery would never be solved.
Researchers at the University of Missouri were fascinated by the case. They began examining trees in all surrounding areas. Fire damage in a Canadian forest finally revealed the truth. Scientists looked at burned tree rings and discovered that huge wildfires once raged in the mountains near Ontario. The savage flames created blankets of black smoke. The smoke traveled high into the atmosphere, darkening the New England skies hundreds of miles away.

If you are given the opportunity to invent anything useful to current season, what will you create as your own invention?​

Answers

Answer:

I would have a GPS System set up to sync with all Traffic lights and Emergency Services.

When an ambulance leaves a property headed for the hospital they would hit the home button on the Navigation system in the vehicle.

That would then set the route and send a signal ahead of time warning all traffic lights that a Emergency Vehicle is approaching.

The lights would have an extra colour light ( say purple for example) which would activate when the Ambulance was within a certain distance from those lights giving motorists enough time to move safely out of the way allowing the Ambulance to have a clear path through the intersection.

This would save seconds, minutes all which are vital and could mean so many more lives saved as well as less accidents and confusion on the roads when an emergency vehicle is trying to get through the traffic to a Hospital or accident to save peoples lives
