Those were illegals running the red lights. That is a prime example of when the light is green look both ways before you pull out into the street or you could get trashed.

I have noted that MANY drivers take the attitude that if the light has been red for only 15 seconds it is Ok to squeek through. I always look both ways and wait till I'm sure that there are no Red light runners before I move under green. i have driven all over the world and America by far has the worst drivers from both a skills standpoint and obeying the law. The average American driver would not last an hour in Europe or middle east.

America also has a lot of unwritten regional laws that can get a person traveling through in big trouble if you are not aware. An example; in New England if you can get the front of your car into traffic then you have the right of way. It doesn't matter how fast you are approaching, a car will jump out without warning. if you are not a very defensive driver there is going to be an accident.

In this area the red flashing light at railroad crossings is saying stop if you see a train in front of you. If the train is not already in the crossing it is OK to go. I also believe that many people have no idea what the yellow lines ,on the highway, are for.

We used to have a road law here that made us always give way to a vehicle coming out of a street on the right....no matter what the situation, we had to give way to our right. It was always that way until they changed it some 30 or so years ago. It was stupid rule really, and I'm sure it caused a lot of accidents.

When I lived in Germany 30 some odd years ago they had camara's at lights and I always thought what a great idea it was. My ex not so much once he got the speeding ticket.
I wonder if these people know ther is a camara??? Everyone of them should get a $1000.00 fine that is if they are still alive.
The camara does not lie and I for one think this is a great way to stop people from hurting themselves and others.
Speeding ticket how about an automatic $500.00? It would raise a lot of money for some cities, money that could go to driving safety classes.
For those of you against the camara, remember it might save your life someday if someone knows they are on camara, might not plow into you.

We have certain people in CT that think the red lights and stop signs don't apply to them. That's why whenever my light turns green, I count to 5 before I proceed. There are too many friggin idiots behind the wheels out there, not paying attention, talking and texting on their cellphones and not wearing their seatbelts. Do I talk on my cell when driving - yes...HOWEVER, I have a bluetooth which makes it hands free, which in CT is legal.
