It should. We have the same problem with motorcycles. They sell a magnet to
hang on the bike frame, as the sensors are looking for a change in the
current due to metal effecting the coil's magnetic field. Some guys glue a
magnet to their boot.
If you try to put a wheel on the windings, it may work. If that fails I
would attach a hard-drive magnet to a rod on a spring and hang it under the
bumper,removing it before going wheeling. We got Calaveras County's 4th
traffic light last year, 3 of them are within a 1/2 mile section.

I've been given a ticket by a cop at 2:30 in the morning when a light
didn't change. Of course, it changed for him. It comes down to you
say, he says. <And>, I was in a car, not a vehicle that would normally
have a problem.
Guess who wins?
And yes, I had a witness, the passenger in my car. I sat there for
about two minutes before running it (knowing there was a problem with
it--it was about four blocks from my house--sometimes it worked,
sometimes it didn't), and I'm relatively sure the cop saw that,
because I have no idea where he came from--so, to me, that says he was
hiding somewhere, knowing there was a problem with that light, and
watching for someone to do what I did.
Two against one, and the cop wins... oddly we weren't charged with
perjury though--even though we apparently blatantly lied under oath.
