[E. Pluribus Unum]

The long cycles help lead to increased red light running.

Then why does increasing the length of the yellow by one second decrease ticket revenue by 90%?

According to you, it should lead to MORE revenue.

What study do you refer to? For every study there’s a counter study, so which to believe? Most such studies are biased and produced to support some lobby faction.

So how is the second defined? Is it 1 second more or less than the standard for the other signals in the area? How is it measured, after the locals adjust to the change, or before?

Interminable cycles with delays between every change and separate stages for arrows in every direction increase the motivation for a motorist to squeeze through at the end, rather than to wait.
