do you ever go through red lights?

[Tri Girl]

On my morning commute I do rolling stops at stop signs all the time. I only ever encounter one car (two if it's a busy morning) on my way to work. When there's a car around, I do come to a full stop at a stop sign. If not, I slow down and check for cars and roll through. I know- I'm a bad cyclist. In the afternoons I always stop.

I have only "run" a red traffic light once (on my commute) and that's because I sat there for an eternity and couldn't trip it (goes back to seeing no cars on my morning commute). Now I just take a different way to avoid that light.
