I'd get an electric bike ... and act like the rest of the local cyclists. Ride on the sidewalk, and cross against the lights, yell at pedestrians/motorists obeying the law when they got in my way.
I'd live in areas where there are no traffic lights (a rural area - as I actually do.) In a city, I wouldn't bother having a car; I'd travel by public transport or on foot, (as I did when I lived in London and Paris.) I'd be keen on a bicycle but only in a place like Amsterdam where there are clearly marked cycleways and bicycles have the right of way.
Yes. I would still drive. I would sit there with my windows down and blare my dull soulless dance music music for all to hear.
I'm remembering a well traveled red light district in Florida Ponce de Leon I think it was called where the gay meat for rent would hang out. Longer times between light changes would have been good for business.
