'Stale green'. That's what I was taught as the term for a green that has been that way over 30secs. Based from my speed, I would hover the brake in the event it would go amber, up to the point I couldn't safely bring the car to a stop. I cannot recall the last time I blew a red, and I spend 3 hours a day driving from south of CLT through downtown to halfway to Mooresville. It's been years, no joking.
I hate to nanny, but our cars weigh almost 4,000 pounds. There's no excuse for running a red. Wrecks rarely happen due to mechanical error and mostly occur because of driver err. I would guess many happen when a driver 'thinks' nobody is where they intend to drive. Similar to thinking ,"I dont see anyone, running the red is harmless". I hate red-light cameras, but 'cheating' them to avoid punishment for poor driving behaviors is not the way to go, IMO.
