Great Advice,couldn't have said it better!! Another thing I would suggest is to be cautious when crossing the intersection, dont just race across. Sometimes, drivers see you and they just dont care and will cut you off. Just this morning I was going straight and the driver on the other side of the intersection was turning left. He saw me and I had signaled to go straight. When the light went green, he raced through the intersection, but I just held off. Patience is a life saver
