I’ve started thanking traffic lights when they’re green and I swear I’m getting more green lights. The machine spirit likes to be appreciated.

Drive slower and you only get a couple, in my experience

But yeah, staying on the good side of the road gods is always in your favor.

[–] Semi_Hemi_Demigod@lemmy.world 3 points 4 weeks ago (2 children)

Sadly, my problem is rarely driving too fast, but usually well under the speed limit for which the lights are timed.

Yeah my home town has a street slated for 25 but if you roll 22 you save gas and coast up as they change and people race to the next one

[–] Semi_Hemi_Demigod@lemmy.world 1 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

In my town they’d do 20 and then slowly coast to a stop at every light.

To be fair they’re all like 80 and on who knows what medication. I’ve seen a few with oxygen tubes in their noses while behind the wheel.

That tracks, I drive like I’m 85 so I’d just hop in line

Hey Gladys, let me hit your O2

[–] WereCat@lemmy.world 1 points 4 weeks ago

Good design. I have to go 20km/h over speed limit to hit green light on every intersection in my town. I’m getting punished for going the speed limit.

[–] Anivia@feddit.org 1 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

Highly depends on how they are coded, in my city there are a lot of traffic lights where you have to aggressively accelerate and still barely make green on the next one if you follow the speed limit. Driving 10kph above the limit you will make the green light easily

[–] EmpathicVagrant@lemmy.world 1 points 4 weeks ago

I’ve definitely seen a share of those too. More or less my point wasn’t that they’re always going to lean slow, but that they’re not often coded for the speed limits posted.
