Hello Bikies,
I got a tweet last week complaining that motorists don't obey the "no
turn on red" on westbound Rimrock at John Nolen, putting cyclists on
the trail at risk. Anyone else with this experience? Thanks.

I wonder if any studies have been done on the effectiveness of the
"light-up" NTOR signs that light up based on the traffic signal status.
E.g. Atwood Ave at the Harmony Bar corner. As a motor vehicle driver, I
find them eye-catching. If I had my druthers, every NTOR in the state
would be so rigged. Either that, or the statute language / signage would
be "flipped", so that the corners that _allow_ turn on red would have a
"Right Allowed on Red After Stop (xxx time range)" sign, and the law
would explicitly forbid the turn unless the sign is present (and in
effect). I'm, er, not holding my breath. Meanwhile, this intersection
would be an ideal candidate for a light-up sign, if indeed they're as
effective as they appear (to me) to be.
