Some drivers also carry them in case of incident as they conveniently collapse and include a handy carrying bag. FAQs Why are Traffic Cones Orange? On the color wheel, Safety Orange (aka 'Blaze"Orange) is opposite azure— the color of the sky. That makes this hue the most dissimilar to an outdoor backdrop and the easiest to spot. The color is Orange-152 on the Pantone Matching System (PMS) with 14 parts yellow+ 3 parts warm red+ /. part black. Blaze Orange is recognized as a high-visibility color by the MUTCD, ANSI, and OSHA, and used for hunting gear and to mark safety tips on guns. Why are Some Traffic Cones Lime Green? Florescent yellow-green traffic cones (Pantone, Yellow-Green 382) may be used in place of traditional orange cones, but the color generally warns of increased pedestrian activity. Whereas orange cones can be expected on highway construction areas, lime green cones are usually found near school zones, bus stops, playgrounds, etc. Safety cones of this color are also common where large vehicles are in close proximity to workers, such as industrial sites and facility entryways. Can you get Arrested for Taking a Traffic Cone? Yes, but the charges depend on the circumstance. Taking anything from a public agency can have serious consequences, especially if a traffic accident results. What are Traffic Cones Made of? Like all traffic safety products, cones are made from pliable plastics-- usually Polyvinyl Chloride. Because cones are manufactured through pressure-molding, the plastic is extremely dense and sturdy yet soft enough to avoid damaging a vehicle. Is it Illegal to use Traffic Cones without a Permit? Anyone can buy a traffic cone, even an MUTCD-compliant traffic cone. In fact, traffic cones have a host of everyday functions. But placing a traffic cone on public property--such as on-street parking spots--is usually illegal and can result in a fine. Who Invented Traffic Cones? In 1940, Charles P Scanlon, a Los Angeles streets worker, invented what would become the first patented safety cone. The original design was made of rubber and fashioned by sewing together used tire skins.
