This is kind of cool - it's probationary and will only last a year if there are any "problems". Applies to bicycles too.

Anyone else live in places that allow this (including right turns in UK-style backward places  ;D)? Why not straight?

As long as they're passing laws, I'd like a moto lane on the freeway...

I think it's being discussed here in WA, as well.

Of course, I've been known to do that in a few spots that I can't trigger.  :-[

No, but I do it anyway if I don't trip the signal.

Same here, I will wait through one rotation and if it does not change, I'm gone!   [thumbsup]

Can't believed I missed seeing this on the news.  Thanks for the heads up, Fergus!
