Cop car, fire trucks, and ambulances have had this ability for years... If this hits the States, how long before we can VAG-COM that hack? Imagine, no more red lights!

Even better, how about making the light turn red so the ricer next to you has to stop, then get embarassed by your "Truth in Engineering."
