Reversing this by synchronising many green lights in a row may cause the
accident rates to rise.
How factual this is, I don't know. I just remember reading about this
some number of years ago.
Where I grew up, there was a 6 lane highway, about 25 miles long. The
lights were timed to let you drive the whole length, with one stop to get
into the cycle. It controlled speeding, because if you went too fast, you
had to slow down for a red light. I fail to see the down side to that.
I wish NCDOT in this county would see that!
