Just drove through a yellow light and saw the dreaded flash bulbs go off. So lame that they do that.

Several people on the forum here have been T-boned by late red light runners .....
It's definitely becoming an increasing problem in the mid west. As they keep increasing the timing delays, it seems that people just keep running the lights later and later.

The reason they change the timinmg delays is to write more tickets
great study on that by Texas A&M (even though aggies suck).... I am looking for that.
That is why Dick Armey (former congressman from down here) was working so hard against red light camera's. The cities who had them changed the timing between yellow and red to maximize revenue

Actually, they've increased timing delays here to give a larger safety margin, but are finding ...
unfortunately, that drivers are taking advantage and running the lights later and later after they've turned red. Nearly every morning on the way to work I'll see some dumb *** running a light that's turned red long before he's ever entered the intersection.
