OT: Traffic Signals in New Mexico

After a "brief" Google search, I found:

http://www.state.nm.us/tax/pubs/mvddrvrs.htm#Traffic%20Signals

which seems (official to me) indicating that New Mexico traffic signals are the
"same as elsewhere" in the US.

However, the unofficial site:

http://freespace.virgin.net/john.cletheroe/usa_can/driving/lights.htm

Does state,

"Occasionally the three lights can be arranged horizontally instead of
vertically. As far as I know this design is only used in New Mexico and Texas.
If the lights are arranged horizontally then red will be on the left, yellow in
the middle and green on the right."

YMMV <G>
