    Help mold my young (cycling age) and impressionable mind ..

    Is it bad form to sprint for/through orange lights?

    Not so much in a bunch ride situation, more "just out for a cruise and dont
    really wanna held up here" sort of thing..

    Ash ..

    Same theory as when in the car.. if you can stop safely before the line,
    then stop. When in doubt, floor it.

    Careful with that one, new red light cameras which detect whether you
    speed up or not on the orange are on their way. I'm not sure of the
    letter of the law but I believe that orange means stop unless unsafe to
    do so.

    Shiny. Way cool.

    Although, probably quite error prone. It'd probably be too easy to
    defend in court.
