It is a special pleasure when we come across a green wave on one of the city's roads. But you will never succeed in the way that Noah Forman "rode" him. He encountered as many as 240 green traffic lights in a row!
Green wave means that we catch at several consecutive intersections green light at the traffic light. In order to encounter such a phenomenon, quite a few factors must come together. Speed of traffic, capacity of intersections, number of vehicles on the road etc. We still have the most options at night, when the roads are empty, and if it exists at all on the road section in question coordinated operation of traffic lights.

A former taxi driver succeeded in an extraordinary feat. To Noah Forman, who ran right into 240 green lights in a row. He managed to do that in Manhattan, New York, and he recorded the whole thing as proof. It is not known what the actual record is, but so far no one has come forward to prove that they have "ridden" an even longer green wave.
