Traffic lights do not allow enough time for a bicycle to get through.

The traffic lights over the bridge do not always allow enough time for an average cyclist to get through. As a cyclist I have experienced road rage three times this summer from drivers thinking I have jumped the lights, most recently by a bus driver who nearly ran me off the road. I set off as the lights turned green but didn't make it through before traffic starts coming through from the opposite direction.
