I took it as: The OP is about honking instantly.

The top of the thread is trying to justify impatiently honking immediately. “I’m impatient and why you aren’t moving immediately!”

Hence my response that they could just have a slower reaction time to the light turning.

So when you say “if the lights been green long enough”

I reply about how “green long enough” is subjective and the thread is biased towards the an Immediate honk.
