Auto Traffic Cop is the world's only automatic backup generator system for traffic signal systems designed to sense a power outage and automatically respond, maintaining a continued operation during blackout conditions for extended periods of time, with up to the minute satellite reporting capabilities.


PowerUp Electric, a premier provider of backup generator systems for residential use, introduces a new division and a new product, the Autotrafficcop 6000. This product facilitates a cost effective backup system that allows traffic signals to remain operational during a power failure. The Autotrafficcop 6000 can sense a power outage and react within seconds to restore power.


"Because our backup generator traffic signal system automatically responds during power failures, cities can maintain full operation of the traffic signal systems and video-monitoring for extended periods, anywhere from hours to even several days. Safe and steady traffic flows during such situations are crucial for public safety and for emergency first responders." says Randy Smith, president and CEO of Autotrafficcop LLC. "Public officials throughout the nation have cited traffic signal outages as a major safety concern, and as the primary cause of traffic and pedestrian congestion during the recent power blackouts. Whether the power is out at one intersection or an entire grid, the Autotrafficcop 6000 platform provides continued signal operation and video monitoring."


Municipalities with Autotrafficcop 6000 platforms are better able to manage traffic flow and emergency situations in a blackout as well as during evacuations resulting from events such as hurricanes, earthquakes or incidents related to Homeland Security. It allows police, fire, EMS and military vehicles to more rapidly respond to emergencies. The Autotrafficcop 6000 platform provides the ability to monitor and manage evacuations while minimizing the risk of injury or death to civilians and public safety officials.
