There is one crossing that I am familiar with where there is no vehicles. But rather than it being activated when someone has to cross, every car is forced to stop every two minutes for no reason at all other than to waste gas and cause air pollution. It is used as a speed control.

The signal system is coordinated, so if you're going the speed limit you shouldn't be stopping.

As far as your second point, you really need to consider the main roadway and the service road as two separate streets. The service roads could be totally congested as you point out near Yellowstone, but the main road is moving just fine.

Except pedestrians have to cross both of them. Also, the speeds can't be different without messing up the aforementioned coordination.
