How do you know that the light has turned green?

The car behind me honks, in a New York second.

I bet you hear quite a few honks, these days.

In New York City you can experience the fastest event known to man, so fast that it is nearly immeasurable. That would be the amount of time that passes between the light turning green and the car behind you honking. (Even though this time span under normal conditions in close to immeasurable, it has been documented that it is much shorter if the vehicle behind you is painted yellow...)
