The answer is........ Safelight
red light has a longer wavelength so it does not get scattered easily and can cover a long distance thus reaching a far observer in case of a traffic signal or as a danger signal.
No, red glass does not only reflect and transmit red light waves. It actually transmits the white light waves through the red glass creating a red glow. A transparent object generally transmits light while a solid object reflects light.
Going from short wavelength light to long wavelength light, the order goes Red - Orange - Yellow - Green - Blue - Indigo - Violet (ROYGBIV)
A new star will usually have hydrogen alpha light. This light is red but is difficult for the human eye to detect. If you look up M42, the Great Orion Nebula, most long exposure photographs will show this red light.

In the absence of shortage of information on the red light: The red light blinks because the on off of the light is controlled by a software program.
It is programmed by the people responsible for maintaining the light.
You have it backwards. The eye perceives long wavelength light as red. It's just how the eye evolved.
The fine for a red light camera ticket in long beach is approx. $450. For additional free information on red light camera ticket in California go to http://www.2FixYourTrafficTicket.com/
There is no specific length of time for a red light. Traffic engineers make that determination according to the flow of traffic.
Red Light - indicates if the cycle is on or off. The red light will blink for 3 minutes and turn off for 3 minutes, the cycle will continuously repeat as long as Riddex® Power Plus is plugged in.

Infrared waves have longer wavelengths compared to red light waves. The wavelengths of infrared waves are too long for the naked eye to see, while red light waves can be seen as part of visible light.
The wavelength of infra-red light is LONGER than the wavelength of red light, and longer than anything to which the eye responds.
Absorbed. Your red ink will look black. "Red" is a long wave-length color. "Blue" is a short one. What looks red in white light is a pigment that reflects red. It won't reflect blue, so it will look dark.
Red and Blue light is absorbed by chlorophyll, the pigment that transforms light energy into chemical energy in photosynthesis, so that the light that is reflected off leaves appears green.
