Does white LED street lamps help criminals or destroy them？

  There are approximately 38,000 LED street lamps installing in Nottinghamshire since 2012. These lamps use white light for years in high crime areas to enhance dark images for providing nighttime visibility and peace-of-mind for the residents as light helps to deter suspicious behavior.

  However, these new white lights are blamed for helping criminals, according to David Martin, a Nottinghamshire county councilor. He believed that new lights are conical and this means there are huge black spots everywhere, which is adding to our crime problems.

  Actually according to the common sense, any crime and suspicious activity maybe carry out under the cover of the darkness and other unseen, invisible situation. While with the bright LED Street lamps help, everywhere pervades bright and enough light. It could effectively decrease these illegal activities possibilities.

  It seems that these LED street lamps represent a major leap forward toward improving pedestrian and vehicular safety, which is badly needed. It has the added benefits of producing highly consistent and efficiently controlled lighting at greatly reduced energy usage and, therefore, greatly reduced cost to the environment.
