Intersections are normally 30 seconds per change green to red and red to
green.
Any idling more than that is uneccessary. It really unnerves me.
My Dad was a mechanic and he said the ignition would wear out. Came from
the same old wives tale that turning the TV on and off wears it out or uses
more power than watching it for hours. And the PC come to think of it.
Both TV and PC monitor probably use about 5 light bulbs of energy to run. I
wonder what it is with LCD and HDTV, everything being energy star compliant
these days.
