@lowqualityfacts Another trick I have seen is to gradually inch forward. I think these are just ways of letting the traffic lights know you are there. Traffic lights are, in fact, sentient beings.

@lowqualityfacts i used to watch Carson as a kid. for some reason, i remember this one joke

the shortest measurable unit of time is the time between the light turning green and a new york cab driver honking his horn

@lowqualityfacts Red traffic lights will turn green if you move away backwards from the traffic light.
