A reasonable (whatever that may be) time I can see waiting but not two full cycles.
As I understand it, the two minute time limit was included to cover the lights that are controled by a timer rather than weight or induction (metal) detectors. I guess it is an attempt to avoid confusion. Two minute cycles are generally what timed lights are set for (Here in Va., at least) , although localities around here are allowed to adjust the settings. Most localities here seem to adjust them down. (Quicker lights generate more ticket revenue. Just my opinion.)
