Damn you must be a old.

You know, it's funny... every year I get older, college freshman coeds stay the same age...

Dude, that is so my line!!!!

I actually I say 'No matter how old I get, they keep staying the same age...'

Damnit, now I have to find a new one. You owe me a beer for making me think.

The law varies by State, Indiana just passed a law that states if you come to a complete stop and it is clear, you can then proceed through the red light on a motorcycle.

I always had some luck putting the side stand down and tapping it a time or two.

Not all areas use magnetic sensors (a lot of places use piezo-electric sensors, in which case the magnetics do nothing -- but braking hard at the very end of your braking, to force more down-force on the sensor does).

Most of the ones around here are magnetic, but recently they have started using cameras. They work pretty good as long as the weather's clear.

About the inductive loops: "The most sensitive areas of detection are to either side of the lane, not in the middle."

From that web page:
How come the detector won't pick up my motorcycle?

With very small vehicles such as a mo-ped or some motorcycles, the detector may not be sensitive enough to pick it up. ... [snip]...
While signal staff has not verified it by experiment we have been told by police officers that installing a small loop of wire with several turns (go around in a circle two or three times) about nine inches to a foot in diameter under the frame of the motorcycle parallel to the roadway surface will make the detector work every time.

Naturally, if/when the cable lets go and gets would up in your chain and rear wheel, the resulting spill will make all the cops on duty in Reno laugh their arses off... There's a reason Reno is the mocked police force on Reno 911 (Comedy Central), right?

Hmmm...
