You're welcome...
If you can see cut out in pavement for sensors, you can park off center and straddle the seam, it will pickup a 2 wheeler much better, no hang on gimmick needed. If you cant see sensor cut out, park off center in lane, it will turn the light.

Missouri already has this law in effect also for those who travel around these parts.

Magnets are a waste of money
It's a metal Detector

The new law is a duplicate law. You (all vehicles,) have always been allowed to treat a "non-functioning" traffic light as if it were a stop sign and proceed.

You may have to explain yourself however....

Magnets! ROTFLMAO! Save your money.

Straddle the seam. If possible lower the jiffy stand to actually touch one of the sensor wires.

If that doesn't work, ride on.
