Twenty years ago, I used ride my bike (bicycle) from Spring Lake, to Bragg (Smoke Bomb Hill) every day. Crossing Bragg Blvd at Honeycutt was always taking my life into my own hands. The through traffic kept coming after red and the cross traffic was ready to zoom after the last red light runner in all directions.

There was a four second rule, don't proceed for at least four seconds after the light turned green, 'cause no one's stopping for yellows -or red!
