I did once try turning the engine off whilst stationary at traffic lights, but without an automated stop / start facility it takes ages to restart.
Turn key to start engine, take car out of park and put into drive, release handbrake then pull away.

By the time you’re done all this, the driver behind has already been leaning on his horn !
