Python CB-R15 can be mounted underneath the car and is weatherproof. It gives you priority over other vehicles at an intersection. It costs around 1,800 CNY on Ebay.

It has come to light that buses in Europe use a special type of gadget to speed up waiting time at traffic lights. The gadget, which is manufactured in China and takes shape as a simple box, is permanently mounted underneath the vehicle. The metal sensing lines built into the road then recognises the special signal and gives the vehicle priority over other road users.
