I‘ve experienced some of the most insane red-light cycles in fly-over-usa. The one I still remember to this day, was one that took 15 minutes. It was 2am at an left-turn into a t-intersection. There was of course no traffic at all. We haven’t seen a car for 30 min. before and after, but the fear of some traffic cop just waiting for us to crack was bigger than our impulse to end this nonsense. Till this day it haunts me that there might have been a traffic cop sitting in front of us all the time, because this insane red-light was the perfect trap. What else he‘d be doing all night anyways? It took so long, we went from frustration to laughing multiple times. And then we’ve started counting the clock.
