And, if you are able to document it, PLEASE communicate with the appropriate department to fix it rather than waiting for a court date -- you might even be able to get them to provide an "official" action item for the court.

You could go down there and easily document that that particular light frequently will not provide a walk signal. I have waited through as many as three cycles before being forced to run the light. Washington State law allows you to proceed through an intersection if it is not working. I encourage you to do this because this may be one of the only ways to ever draw any attention to this intersection that fails consistently. Phil, you should fight this one in court.

I was just returning home via the Lower West Seattle Bridge at the intersection of West Marginal/ Spokane St. & Delridge-Chelan Cafe. Well illuminated/bright clothes and helmet I crossed one leg of the intersection on a "Cross" light, and since traffic was still stopped took advantage of the second leg "No Walk Sign" and proceeded to cross Spokane St. Waiting for me on the other side, was our friendly Law Enforcement team who stood in front of the path and had me "step off the bike". I received a ticket for "J Riding"-Seattle Violation Code 11.44.120. Ticket Fee was $103.00. Beware. . . you are being watched! All you Peddlers escaping “Carmageddon”.
