Red is the recognised colour for danger.. like poisionous insects are usually red, and caution signs are usually red.. therefore it's stop
green is the most opposite colour to red.. therefore it's go
and orange/amber is kinda in between i spose..

How does light become colors?
When you say 'Light' you probably mean, 'White light'. White light, or just plain old light, say, from the Sun, is composed of light of all the different visible colors. Light can be separated out into all the colors that are in it by using a prism or by reflecting the light off of tiny water droplets in the sky (creating a rainbow). The weirdest way to split light into its colors that I have ever seen is caused by light bouncing back from the tiny glass balls that are spread on wet traffic-stripe paint. It is really strange to see "rainbows" on the street!
What gives an object its colour?
All objects absorb, reflect, and/or transmit light of specific colors. Generally, we cannot see absorbed light, but we can see reflected and transmitted light, and it is this selectivity of which colors are reflected or transmitted that give objects their color..A green sofa, for example, absorbs all colors exceptgreen, which it reflects. When white light strikes the sofa, only the green component of the white light reflects off the sofa, and so we observe that the sofa is green..Similarly, if we were to put a red filter over a traffic light, the filter will absorb all colors except red, and it will allow only red light to pass through the filter. So when that specific traffic light is energized, we see only red light..Some objects, such as glass and air, transmit all visible colors - that is, clear glass and air are transparent to all visible colors. We would categorize such items as colorless.

Much thought went into the selection for the colors in Stop, Go, Caution lights, they however weren't for traffic lights, they were for the Railroad and devised by their engineers through a trial and error method, the glare of the sun played a large part in the final selection of colors. The life-saving ingenuity of the Railroad Engineers are responsible for the traffic light selection of colors.
