One problem I've always had with hypermiling is that #1 and #5 are almost mutually exclusive. While you are creeping toward the light at 5-10mph, everyone behind you waiting to go right (or left) is trapped until you pass the beginning of the turn lane.... something you aren't likely to do until the main signal has already become green again. I know I've been caught behind cars creeping toward a light before and missed the left turn signal because they are moving too slow/too far back
