On Monday morning, a group of eight images depicting different scenarios formed by a total of nine traffic lights placed together triggered heated discussions among the public, with some criticizing the "new design" as being overly complicated and confusing.
The "new" rules have also sparked controversy over the "removal" of the widely popular countdown for signal changes.
However, the institute responsible for the system, the Traffic Management Research Institute of the Ministry of Public Security, issued a statement late on Monday saying there was no new national standard for traffic lights to be implemented in 2022.
一、現行國家標準《道路交通信號燈設置與安裝規范》(GB14886)于2016年12月13日發布、2017年7月1日實施，至今已五年，未作修訂，不存在2022年實施的“新國標”。目前，各地在用道路交通信號燈符合現行標準，不需要進行更換。

The current national standard for traffic lights are in line with the guidebook titled Specifications for Road Traffic Signal Setting and Installation, which was issued in December 2016, and was rolled out in 2017, the statement said.
二、按照2016年標準規定，信號燈組合形式包括2種常規組合和3種特殊組合，分別適用于不同類型的路口路段。網友指出的過于復雜的“九宮格”式信號燈，是特殊組合的一種，僅適用于極少數復雜路口，以減少人車沖突、保障安全暢通。

According to the statement, the complex scenarios pointed out by net users are only applicable in rare cases and would not affect normal road traffic.
三、該標準從未對“倒計時顯示器”作出規定，部分地方安裝倒計時顯示器，依據的是推薦性行業標準《道路交通信號倒計時顯示器》（GA/T 508-2014），可以繼續正常使用。
The 2016 version of the guidebook did not mention whether or not the countdowns should be used, and it was up to various regions to use if it could provide more convenience for residents.
四、網友反映的個別信號燈出現“紅綠同亮”的情況，經排查均屬于設備故障問題。如果因信號燈故障被抓拍，當事人可依據《道路交通安全違法行為處理程序規定》，向公安交通管理部門提出申述，核實后予以撤銷。
五、公安部交通管理科學研究所孫正良同志未認證開設新媒體賬號、未進行直播。網上有人以“新國標紅綠燈設計者孫正良”的名義進行直播，系他人冒用孫正良名義并盜用個人照片。
The institute confirmed that someone had used the name and pictures of Sun Zhengliang, a staff member who works at the institute, to do a live broadcast, trying to explain the rules for the new lights but was forced to go offline 10 minutes later after being met with fierce criticism from viewers. The statement also said that Sun had not opened any social media accounts or done any live broadcast.
