If you slam on the brakes at high speeds on a modern car, you will stop in much less than 2 seconds. In practice you need some time to react as well, but the time to react to an anticipated event is short and should be about a quarter of a second.

The "state of the LEDs" that you keep referring to is the signal that tells other drivers they may proceed. Stop minimising it.

    So time to react is a quarter second, meaning the driver isnt allowed to look at anything but the traffic light when approaching one? Sounds dangerous.
