Micmac Posted July 13, 2007 Share Posted July 13, 2007 Up for vote next week, ever sit at a light for 20 minutes in 100 degree heat? SB 1359 AN ACT TO ALLOW THE OPERATOR OF A MOTORCYCLE TO PROCEED THROUGH AN INTERSECTION CONTROLLED BY A TRAFFIC SIGNAL ONLY IF THE TRAFFIC SIGNAL USES AN INDUCTIVE LOOP VEHICLE SENSOR THAT ACTIVATES THE TRAFFIC SIGNAL AND THE INDUCTIVE LOOP FAILS TO DETECT THE MOTORCYCLE AND ACTIVATE THE TRAFFIC SIGNAL.

Falcon Posted July 13, 2007 Share Posted July 13, 2007 Be interesting to see how they are going to mark the poles so you know if it is inductive or timed. Me, I put down the kickstand, get off and press the crosswalk button and get back to the bike about the time it turns green. Or, I just turn right.

Pop Posted July 13, 2007 Share Posted July 13, 2007 Let's see. Highway paid for with taxes. Taxpayers share ownership of highways. Pop is a taxpayer. If no other taxpayer is currently occupying a chunk of highway it's mine to use. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XV62 Posted July 14, 2007 Share Posted July 14, 2007 While the inductive sensor systems are still very much in use, almost all new installations are going to the camera detection systems. I am still amazed by the morons that don't know when they haven't pulled up on the old style inductive sensors. Most of those around here have a middle of the lane sensor along with the outer loop.

Brock Posted July 14, 2007 Share Posted July 14, 2007 I read this a few months ago and cant remember if it was NC or somewhere else but a very good and logical law....hope it takes on in every state. I end up doing it anyhow as if I sit through a cycle and it goes around again I will go. I try to pull ahead of the line to encourage cages to pull up behind me and set off the magnetic sensor or pressure pad...just be careful if it is wet out with putting your feet down on that painted line instead of the pavement as it is slicker than goose shit.
