The Amber Gambler Twins is one of many public interest films trying to change the public's behavior.[2][3] It tries to induce a reflective moment leading to an "I see" epiphany.[2] PlotAs a voice-over narrates, a man is seen driving and ignoring amber signals, until the odds catch up with him and he strikes another "amber gambler". In getting out of his car to confront the other driver, the camera pulls back to reveal that the other person is himself. The phrase has been popularly used to succinctly describe high risk driving behaviors that enhance the likelihood of automobile collisions, damage, injury and death.[4] It characterizes amber gambling as racing through amber lights at one end of the cycle or the other.[5] Other usesIn the early 1990s, the term became popular with ufologists in describing mysterious orange lights sighted around crop circle sites.
