Colfax made great strides a few years ago when they bought another
traffic light controller: now all three sets of lights don't turn red at
the same time!

Ever come in from Palouse and seen all the equipment that they have
to turn the lights red in case of a runaway coming down the (steep)
hill into town? The cops get notified and give you a ticket if you
trip it (>25). Of course the runoff goes across highway 26 and into
the Palouse R. aqueduct, so it's not much good for the runaway...

Personally, I usually go around by the airport and hospital.
