You should call the county or state(who ever owns the light) when you find a

to court to back up your word.

Yep. If you run steel wheels put a wheel over the sensor and it will work. Had this
problem with the automatic gates at work after the first couple of lifts.

The magnets removed from old hard-drives are about the strongest you will
