Reminds me of the drive on HWY 71 going near Bella Vista, AR.

Like the above post, I recommend anticipating the stop lights as much as possible. Keep a look out for 1) stale green 2) traffic stopped at the intersection 3) amount of traffic on your side of road to keep the sensor tripped 4) if you can see the crosswalk sign flashing red or "don't walk" (some even have numbers).

If you can find a suitable alternative route, test it out.
