I can see four cars at a four way stop and the all four drivers constantly tapping the button as if they were on jeopardy. all the while the stop lights at the intersection looking like christmas lights blinking away!

Its infrared, so probably the one closest to you. It would have limited range like a tv remote

i'm surprised it's taken this long for one to even come out.
as far as changing lights, err... the lights aren't changed individually. the IR signal is picked up and sent to the control module for that INTERSECTION. i bet this thing works like a switch. if your light is red, you use it to send the signal and the intersection CM changes the lights. the idea being that if your light is green, you wouldn't need to use it. but if you do use it when your light is green, it will likely switch to red.
copish?

I believe what the system does it turns on when the cars emergency lights are actiavated, as the police car appoarchs an intersection the device turns all lights to red that way there is no traffic moving in the intersection, and makes the intersection safer to go through.
