Oh well. Perhaps, given time, you can learn to live with this red
LED, even though it is clearly very disturbing for you.


It's the way it conditions people away from "red means stop". You
stick in your ticket and the gate says "Red - OK, proceed".


I think most people actually look at the big screen on the top of the
gate, not the tiny little LEDs on a pass reader which they aren't using
and have no reason to use.
