I hardly see this over here in India.

On an unrelated note, did you know, most 1 lane roads here are secretly 2 lane roads?

Lol, indeed-- the 2 lane 1 lane road certainly exists elsewhere, as I've seen in Japan side streets.

But as my old Indian roommate mentioned to me once, red lights also don't always mean stop there either, lol

Depends quite a bit on the city. Some are much stricter, which coincidentally also happen to be better places for road cycling.

There too?
Well, I guess nowhere is safe.
