I'm a new biker and have been practicing with a friend's cruiser.
My problem is that whenever I come up to a red light to turn left, sometimes the sensor doesn't pick up on me so it doesn't give me the green arrow. I tried sitting on the right side of the lane, the left side, the middle and even tried backing off a little. Nothing works. Sometimes I have to wait until a car pulls up behind me so I can go or ride further up the street and make a U-turn.
Last night, I saw it happened to another biker. The sensor didn't pick up on him either so he just ran the red. I don't want to do that but if I have to I will.
What to do........
