    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.

          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

            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.

          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.
