You suggestions are all commendable and are part of being a considerate and alert driver. Unfortunately many drivers on the road are neither.

Some more negative ones might be added, such as blowing the horn to awaken someone at the head of a left turn lane who won't go when the green arrow turns green. Such inconsiderate (comatose?) drivers usually make it through the light while it is still green, but others behind them often can't. Green lights don't get any greener and they don't stay green for very long. Wake up and drive. Sleep at home, not at a green light.
