Traffic light trigger

[YJBoomer]

I work third shift and on my way to work I run into traffic lights. I'll wait until a car comes and move up so they can activate the trigger. It's a real pain in the a$$ sometimes. Does anyone run those traffic light triggers? Do they really work? Thinking of trying it out. Or are these just a waist of time and money?

in WI its legal that after a certain length of time (i cant remember how long) if its clear to go you can leave on a red light. check with your state laws for a free fix.

I think it's the same in CA too. 3 cycles if it's a left turn arrow. I'm not sure about going through straight.

minnesota its legal too... it goes by so many cycles like Pockets said... im not sure how many it is here... i usually only have problems with 1 light and its right by the house so i usually just dont even stop if its clear...

hey read this. http://www.wikihow.com/Trigger-Green-Traffic-Lights It gives some tips on where to stop in the loop.

konrider, thats pretty cool. I never knew where the best place to stop was. I always figured it was in the middle. I'll be giving it a try at the light up by my house. It's the only one that gives me problems. Thanks for the info.[up]
