I think the simpiliest solution is to have two switches to work the light. One switch controlled by a man monitoring the pit stop itself, and another watching for traffic. The driver would only get the green light when both switches have been tripped.
That would work, but it would erode away the advantage the light system has, saving reaction time.

If you keep on adding middle men to make decisions, the reaction times willl be the same as a lollipop man.

The traffic light system is only going to work better if you can cut out reaction time.

I think Ferrari have got it right. They just have to improve human performance. As all their pit troubles have come from human errors.
