TIL the first ever traffic light was installed in London in 1868. A month later, it exploded. It was gas-lit.

wtf??? I’ve gone my whole life thinking the first ever traffic light was invented and installed in Cleveland Ohio. Turns out, it was just the first ever in the USA. This is what they taught us in schools…in Cleveland Ohio.
