That's... just a tram. Many large cities have them and they indeed sometimes stop at traffic lights. Or when some asshole parked too close to the tracks.

    Tram is definitely not the correct word for them, they're light rail. They have way larger capacity than a tram has, but have some section where they have to cross roads and stop for that reason. They do have their own path as well, so it would be crazy for a car to block its path while parked.
