red light video

Some of these would be very bad if you were riding a motorcycle. Do not ever enter an intersection with a green light without looking both ways.

The semi avoidance maneuver almost worked...almost.

Thanks for that sobering reminder, Bob Long ago I used to stomp on the gas when the light turned green. Riding changed my thinking. I'm lucky, so far.

Bob, what percentage are typically "intentional" vs "not paying attention?

[Quinn]

Springfield---isn't that where the Simpsons live?

My old Latin American driving habits still hold. With a red light look behind you. With a green light look left and right. When taking a exit at a highway look to make sure nobody is passing you on the shoulder.

I never look left and right on the green light. Not at my usual speed. I would have no time for avoidance anyway.

It would only be a flash from one side or the other.

Then I suppose some county personnel would have to pick me up and take me down to north Mission Road. Well, I been down there before.

I always look left and right on a green light, especially if it just turned green. Also I look back on a red light and generally pull to the side of the lane to stop, in case someone is comming up too fast from behind. I look for folks passing on the shoulder only if riding in Texas

We almost always have the distinction of being # 1 or #2 in the state in either red light running or speeding, or both.

 

Like Kathy I did do the stomp, but not any more...
