they do not work

Never heard of em before. So I went looking. Seems to be a debate on whether they work or not. In this day and age of having all sorts of electronics on a bike, I would be very careful about where I located one on the ride. And the idea of a STRONG magnet close to the road makes me a little wary about picking up metal road debris ( Or Hayweeds starter ).

WikiHow sometimes has some good ideas. However I am not sure this time. Leave the bike and go push the crosswalk button? If it sticks THAT long, I am running the sucker, lol Another funny one is they say to attach a magnet to your shoe with epoxy. What happens if you stop on a steel bridge?

WikiHow

I usually just run them as well..after 2 rounds I"m done or just melted into a blob on the ground. As I'm running the red light I am thinking of excuses to say if I ever get pulled over. I'm sure you guys have some good ones.

I usually just turn right on the red if possible. Otherwise, if no ones around.....ZOOM!


Never been stopped for that yet....*Knock on wood*

It depends greatly upon when I am at said and where said light is located. The light at the corner of 104 and 181 is horrible at 5:30 in the morning, I usually have to run that one. I haven't been stopped yet *knock on wood*.

Traffic signals do not work on a magnetic system. If you pull up to a light that wont change, simply put your kickstand on the ground and the sensor will pick up on it. You look like your crazy for putting your stand down at a light but it works.

I will have to try that one.

Yea me too! Thanks Hay, I'll let you know..although I have sat at a red light and bounced up and down on my seat...kick stand can't be stranger than that!

They sense The metal of a cage. The more metal the better it will sense you. If you put the stand down on the ground. It will pick up on it better.

I put kickstand down works most of the time, usually I run em if they take too long

According to the Riders Safety Course I've taken, If the light won't change, and there is a car behind you, Pull over and allow him in, If that option is not available, and you can get away with it, treat it as a STOP sign, and cross with caution. I guess get away with it, is if there isn't any COP's around.

Just what I was told.

haha I had a cop down here behind me the other day honk at me to go through the light, guess it was a busted signal
