Yeah, and then you and 50 other cars burn up all that fuel and more when you have to stop at the next two stop lights that are out of time with the others.
There is a section of two lights on US-31 through Holland where you have to travel 30mph in a 50mph zone in order to not have to stop. Then in the rural area up to Grand Haven, you again can not travel any one speed to make it through the lights, you have to very your speed upto 10mph above or below the speed limit between lights or you are stopping.
And this is after the city supposedly spent 10's of thousands of dollars on a traffic light study.
