Presumably the advantage is that the cyclist doesn't have get on the sidewalk to press the pedestrian crossing button to trigger a light change. Presently cars already have a trigger in the form of some magnetic strip on the road to trigger a light change. The difference with car trigger is that even if the car moves off before the light turns green the light still stays green. I can't understand why the same protocol can't be used with these yellow dots.
