Yup. Some lights I know well enough if I could get that timing on the dragstrip I'd be taking home some prize money.

Around here we have crosswalks with a countdown timer so you know how long until the lights change. That's your Christmas tree light!

My point is I'm used to pulling up to the white line with other vehicles. But in the Camaro I can't hardly see the light using the line. It's just hard to remember not to pull up that far.

haha are those still a thing? My '56 has a traffic light viewer mounted on the dash for that very reason, never seen one a car newer than the 60s though.

You can just do what most people do, mess with your phone until the cars behind you honk their horns. That's when you know it's time to go.
