I had this problem years ago riding home late at night on a motorcycle. I even did the crosswalk button push every now and then. Finally, I asked a cop about it. He said that as long as I gave the light 90 seconds before taking off, he wouldn't bother giving me a ticket.
What frustrated me even more than red lights were the stupid "left turn on arrow only" lights when I lived in Houston. I don't know how many hours I wasted at green lights, unable to turn left because I didn't have the arrow, even though I was the only vehicle within a mile of the light.
I mean . . . . right on red - okay; left on green - not okay?
