The Red and Green Door Handle

Me and a couple of friends went out to a bar last Friday and there I got to see this weeks delight: the door handles used on the toilet doors were lit up from the inside with a red light if the toilet was occupied and a green light if it was free. That way there could be no misunderstandings about the status of the toilet, i.e. you got to sit in peace without anyone tugging at the door to see if it is unlocked. Well... you get to sit in peace until the queue outside grows and people get impatient at least...
