Traffic light sometimes doesn't respond to me?

When I am out on my bike it has happened a few times that the traffic light does not react to me

Here are 3 examples

Once I stood in front of the red traffic light did not turn green, then I went a few centimeters further forward so that I was exactly on the edge of the thick white line, still behind the traffic light, it immediately turned green

Recently I was standing in the left turn lane at a red traffic light. The white line to stop was a little further behind the traffic light and not directly on the same line. Only when a car drove into the straight ahead lane directly in front of the traffic light did it immediately turn green.

Once with the e scooter it took several minutes until the traffic light turned green the others left right had in the meantime several red green phases

why is that

Maybe it was coincidence? In the most recent cases, the traffic lights react to whether someone is at the stop, but simply have a fixed time window.

If it is that an induction loop is in the ground that switches the traffic lights, then normally there is also a sign under the traffic light: “Please move forward to the holding line”

So a traffic light, which also automatically detects pedestrians or cyclists, has not come to me yet. However, I would probably get to it if the usual pusher (green dialect) was missing.

These lights have a field in which you have to put on it. Or there’s a little camera that can see if there’s someone standing there.

These only work from a certain weight
