Sensor for bikes in San Fran
Found this article about a sensor being installed in San Fran that will detect bikes and extend the light automatically so they can make the light. Kinda cool.

I posted it in A&S.
The talking gal in the video still had to take a swipe at cyclist even though the subject was the technology.

The drudge report fools have flooded the comments. Quite funny responses. Also infuriating that there are so many thoughtless and inconsiderate people out there. The bay area is relatively bike friendly, and *******s from outside will never understand it.

@CB HI - didn't see it there because I avoid that part of the forums, to much arguing about helmets and stuff.
It is nice to see things like this being implemented instead of just talked about. Hopefully it will spread.

I have a feeling that by the time this country is 'bike friendly', I will be long since deceased, but I guess it's a step in the right direction.
