-- all terrific suggestions, pretty exactly what John Forester 
recommends in his Effective Cycling. But none of it has any bearing on 
or justification for going through red lights. On the contrary, 
effective cycling requires close adherence to car-like behavior. I see 
where you have time to invent excuses for running the light while 
waiting, but I can come up with just as good excuses for running them in 
a car. Not a good idea.
