ION - Waterloo Region's Light Rail Transit
So, here’s something fun:

You know those big black illuminated “NO TURN/TRAIN” signs? I’ve seen them triggered randomly while riding my bike along Caroline.

   

I noticed it again today while riding SB... but there wasn't a single car on the road. I always assumed it was cars up closer to William that were triggering it. So I stopped... turned around, and went back... and biked toward it again.

It went off.

   

I did it like 10 times, just to make sure it was repeatable, and it went off at the same spot every time.

   

“Haha, that’s hilarious, it thinks I’m an LRV!”, I thought...



...until someone pointed out on twitter that maybe that’s the intended operation, that it goes off for both LRV’s and cyclists.
