Something tells me it was longer than 0.74 seconds. And typically the person that suffers the consequences of the lead car not paying attention is the cars further back sitting through another light cycle because you can’t put down candy crush while driving

I drive a stick. Sometimes I get a honk in that moment when shifting into gear at the light change. People expect the cars to start moving immediately once the light changes.

I also drive a stick, put the car in gear when you get to the light.

I try to put it in gear shortly before the light changes, but sometimes the light is long and I don’t want to just ride my clutch while I sit there for a minute or more.
