I would also be curious about any local mycology groups.

I use to work in the mycological field; growing, foraging, and selling and am down to chat more and/arrange for some meetups!

I'm not saying you can blow through lights, I'm saying that when it's the middle of the night, you stop at the light, look around, make sure it's clear and continue.

I'm out super late almost every night, the roads are empty. There is no reason to sit at a red light with no other cars coming. You would still have to yield to pedestrians and its very rare I see anyone on the sidewalks at that hour anyway.

How is that any different than a stop sign? They either need to allow us to continue, or change more lights to flashing red during late night hours like some areas already do.

I do late night deliveries and sometimes I have to run red lights that never change. I'm sitting there for no reason at 3am with no other cars.

I'm for better enforcement of dangerous running of red lights obviously, but I don't want to get an automatic ticket because the stupid light hasn't turned green for 5 minutes at 3 in the morning.

I personally think you should be able to treat red lights as stop signs between 2am-5am or something like that. It's ridiculous how long I just sit at lights for absolutely no reason. Like it probably is close to an hour of my time that I'm out doing deliveries in a night.

Man I didn't even know this was a thing to look for, I've been looking for mushrooms around here to no avail so some local advice would be great

Cultured cafe has a great mushroom community and education events every month. During the season they will most likely organize foraging events and lots of those kind of people go. They actually have a paint night tonight cultured.cafe/culture
