I agree, but there is no need to fly off the handle, and start with insults. I advise to choose your words more wisely. I suggest you delete or edit it!
Thank You.

No need to be harsh. OP has a valid argument & negative comments are against forum rules. Sometimes it can't be helped. Most of us have been in situations where slamming the brakes at a yellow would likely cause an accident. Also realize that those cameras are not 100% accurate. I'm not saying he should intentionally run red lights, on the contrary. It just seems like the cameras are set up/timed to catch you off gaurd. Sometimes they shorten the transition time between yellow & red to yield more tickets. Just playing devils advocate, but if running a red light at these intersections are really so dangerous to the public. Why is the fine only $50 and no points. If the local government wanted to stop this from happening, shouldn't the fine be $1,000 and up. I personaly think they are usefull, but it really depends on the location. It's sad, but they usally look for a spot that creates the most revenue (heavy, but slow traffic areas) instead of the most dangerous. OP don't bother with covers & sprays. It's more trouble than it's worth.

I have a strong opinion that since lights are timed that slamming on your brakes creates a much more dangerous situation then being 10 feet a way from the intersection when the light turns red. Iam in no way advocating sprinting through red lights, but sometimes it happens when you think there is enough time and slamming on your brakes going 50+ would create quite the hazardous situation. Thank you to the post that I just quoted, I appreciate a actual real approach to my question and not a "I never run red lights because the lights never turn red when Im on the road" approach. Im a very safe driver with minimal citations on my record but sometimes I miss the yellow by 10 feet, someone sue me |
