Traffic Lights

All these years driving in Buffalo and hitting, seemingly, every goddamned light red, I finally realized what the lights were timed for: 12mph bikes. I hit 22 out of 30 lights without having to stop on my last bike ride. On my most recent car drive I probably came to the same number of lights and there was no way I hit more than a 1/3rd of them green. Who says cars are always quicker?
