What lights are on a sailboat?
Running lights are on the bow (front) and are green to starboard (right) and red to port (left). A white stern (rear) light completes the three lights necessary on a sailboat. All three can also be together at the top of the mast, and are called a tri-light. If the boat can motor there will also be a steaming light half-way up the mast that must be on while motoring at night.

Why are the street lights green yellow and red?
Traffic lights use Red Amber Green because Red has always been associated with danger and green with safety. The amber is an interim light, only used to indicate to an approaching vehicle operator whether the next change will be to Red (amber on its own UK, US) so the vehicle can slow down, or to Green (Red and Amber together UK) so the appropriate approach speed can be maintained.
