Garrett Morgan See website: http://inventors.about.com/library/inventors/blgas_mask.htm ---- The world's first traffic light was operating in London, England, even before cars were invented. It was a revolving gas-lit lantern with red and green signals, but in 1869, the light exploded, injuring the policeman who was operating it. In the early 1900s Garrett Morgan, an African-American living in Cleveland, Ohio, developed the electric automatic traffic light, originally based on a semaphore-system. Shortly after this, Detroit police officer William L Potts developed the first 4-way three colour traffic light using red, amber, and green railroad lights.
It was Thomas Edison but he was caucasion. So no African American invented the light bulb.
The first traffic light was invented in December 10, 1868. The electric traffic light was invented in 1912. The Automatic Traffic light was invented in 1927.
