Should I stop at red lights when riding my Motorcylce?
Find answers to your legal question.





Should I stop at red lights when riding my Motorcylce?

I usually cut red lights, but only when I'm riding my Motorcylce because light sensors can't detect my Motorcylce and light won't turn green, Is it okey for me to run red lights, or should I stop?
Does traffic light detect motorcycles waiting on red or is it too small, because it's not as heavy or big as cars!

I ride a bike too, most do detect cycles. But anyway her in Tennessee you may proceed thru red light after making a complete stop and its clear to go. (motorcycles only)


carrieluvsredsox
No. please do not. than you can get hit by some big old truck. that might teach you a lesson.

Yes, you should stop. Try aiming for the tire ruts; you'll see the black rectangle right before the stop line where they cut into the pavement to lay the sensors. Try to stop directly on one of those. That should trigger the sensor and turn the light.

change gears and twist the throttle off

yes you must

Go ahead and run the red light, just let me know where you will be so I can proceed on the green light and broadside you. You see, I have a couple little cosmetic spots on my van that could easily be fixed by a body shop when your insurance company pays for my damages. Of course you will probably be dead, but at least you won't be waiting on those pesky red lights anymore.

Are you kidding me!!!!! Of course you stop at red lights! It's riders like you that make everyone look bad. I hope you get as many tickets as possible.

I've heard taping a large magnet under our motorcycle will trigger lights. Look into it. I'm not a motorcyclist my self, but definitely worth looking into. I don't want you getting hurt out there.

i thought this was a joke question at first.
Well i mean, you only really have to stop if you dont wanna get flattened by a semi.
you should weigh enough to trigger the light

Rage, you're back with a new name. Uh I guess if you're going to stay in character, go ahead and run the lights and see what happens.

Personally I do not advocate breaking the law. It never works out right.

Motorcyclists must follow the rules of the road as does the driver or any motor vehicle.

It is in your best interest to obey traffic laws. If the risk of getting hit by a car is your type of thrill, then by all means continue.


Brandi Jooo!
uhm, i definitely think you should stop. not only are you breaking the law but when you run red lights you put yourself and other people in danger.

All it takes is someone to be doing the exact same thing as you and you'll be seriously injured or killed.

If you know it's wrong don't do it. laws are there to protect people, property and keep things in order.
