Hi Jym,

Right, my previous data was anecdotes, not
sampling, so the last 3 evenings
I've been sampling:

Along my commute in Sunnyvale and Los Altos
on Homestead and Foothill:

15 cyclists stopping at lights
2 ran red lights.
    Youth on BMX
    Adult in new cycling gear on a mountain bike
        with a backpack.

1 ran a left turn arrow (I don't know if the
left turn detector worked, so uncertain about
counting this one)
