.........and the damm thing wont change.
prequel-
im borrowing my buddies bike to do some late-night, no traffic, practice riding. no stunts, no racing, just easy riding in full gear to get some more seat time in. im riding in parking lots and doing low speed figure eights to get acclimated to the riding position of a sportbike.
anyway, its late at night and theres no cars around. i come up to a red light to turn left, and wait. and wait. and wait. and wait. and wait. the damm light wont change. so, i sneak back over to the lane next to me and go straight so i can u-turn and go about my business. i come to another left-turn scenario, and the same thing happens. by now i figure that my 240 pounds plus bike still isnt enough weight to trip the in-ground sensor to let the stupid light know that someone is there and wanting to turn left. WTF?
does this happen to anyone else? what do you do? run the light? go straight and u-turn to abide by the law?
