It should be a law that lights within 2000 feet of each other MUST be
synchronized.

In which direction?


the direction i happen to be going in at the time.

Just remember kids that lights that are synchronized for 35MPH are
also synchronized for 70MPH.

I wonder if that's really true. Sounds logical.

Perhaps sometimes but not always. Take for example a lights 35 miles apart
that is to go green at one hour intervals. If you drove at 70 MPH you would
be a half hour early at each light. That same analogy can be applied for
shorter distances and shorter times.
