Calling all California cars!



Alot of places have triggers on their traffic lights.  They look for either a 
strobbing light, or a spotlight to hit them, and when they do, they instantly 
turn green (to help speed the authorities to their appointed jobsites).  

Just 'cuz I always think this way, a devils' advocate question...  Is it 
possible that that is what you are seeing there, Dan?

Just a thought...

Quoting Dan Smith <sad_rocc@yahoo.com>:

> not.
