Description

The traffic light on Stannard Ave leading to Short Beach Rd needs to be adjusted or reviewed. It will not change if a motorcycle comes to the light, it seems like it only changes based on the weight of a car. The motorcycles/scooters/bicycles that sit and weight for the light end up running it after about 5-10 min of sitting there, unless a car pulls up behind it. It's annoying and dangerous at the same time. They'll sit out there revving their engines and then finally take the chance to turn left risking oncoming traffic and being hit or killed. Please review this light. and change the way that it indicates when the traffic on Stannard Ave can go. Perhaps on a timer rather than based on a car sitting at the light like it is now, because it's not registering light weight cycles. Please before someone is killed because they take a chance and run a light that won't change.
