Comment
The proposed regulation is an unreasonable burden on the public and
on auto service facilities.   The penalties and remedies are
unreasonable and unnecessary.

The proposed regulation is ineffective.

ARB should instead direct its controls **and enforcement** toward
municipal public works that install and operate traffic control
signal lighting.  Municipal traffic and road authorities continue
to add traffic signals at intersections or driveways at intervals
between the primary intersections.  The problem is that the
intermediate signals are not timed to the main intersections, so
they stop up to dozens of cars for one or two cars.  City planners
often believe that 3 seconds clear on the main street to allow
green on the smaller street or driveway - but these don't allow for
the fact that the main intersections are already impacted by prior
smaller signals, instead of moving at the rated speed limit, the
average speeds are lower than designed.

The current state is that every time 10-20 cars *each way* are
stopped and then start again, unnecessarily, then there's the
carbon crime that needs to be controlled.
