An Ottawa cyclist who had a close call at a major intersection wants an end to red revert technology. But cyclists say if they move off the sensors before the lights change completely, the lights of the cross street may suddenly revert back to green. There is no indication red revert technology played a factor in that cyclist's death, but the RCMP said the cyclist was "disobeying" the red light. Catherine McKenney is calling for the 'red revert' feature to be abolished. Somerset Councillor Catherine McKenney wants an end to red revert technology that can pose a danger for cyclists.
