I wish I could report the same 'placid' drivers. 3 of the last 5 afternoon commutes have included an aggressive driver blaring their horn at me while crossing, with the signal. It is an unusual and busy crossing. There are two busy country roads and an interstate exit feeding one of the county roads. Map reference, if you're interested:

Here is last night's GoPro footage, you can jump to 1:28 to get to the 'action'
WARNING: my language is not acceptable for basic cable:
Also, really nice long crossing signal, it's flashing "DO NOT CROSS" before I finish crossing on a bike!
