PP> In Metro Toronto, a similar programme is under
PP> way. Forester's recomendation on dealing with non-responsive signals is
PP> to treat them as "inoperative" and proceeding when save ( thus treating
PP> the signal a "stop sign" ).
BR> That's what I do at one traffic light that doesn't seem to want to
BR> change unless a car comes along.  Crossing the Trans Canada Highway,
BR> which is very busy, I usually have to go up on the sidewalk and press
BR> the pedestrian button to get the light to change in my favour.
When I was 40 or 50 years younger and was riding my Harley 74 and came up
to a Red Light that had the treadle for chnging I would stop so that
my left foot was over the treadle plate and with my Cycle Boot just
stomp on that sucker. Worked every time.
