Harley-Davidson and Schwinn riders sick and tired of waiting at red lights in Virginia are in for some relief. Motorcyclists, moped riders and bicyclists will be allowed to run red lights in certain situations under a measure recently signed into law by Gov. Bob McDonnell.

The issue, proponents of the measure say, is that many stop lights don’t change unless sensors in the roadway are triggered by a car or truck. Bikes often can’t trigger those sensors.
