Thanks for the link, AC! That's what I am talking about!. And you don't have to be speeding, just entering the intersection during a red light, which as I posted originally, can happen if the vehicle in front of you slows down, delaying your crossing. I can see someone at the other end with a cigar, laughing :muaha: [/quote]

Nice suburbia here. Now there are cameras installed on traffic lights in many intersections.
Suppose you start passing thru the intersection making a left turn behind a trailer truck WHILE light is STILL green BUT the truck is slow and you are stuck behind and the light turns yellow...and then red...the truck goes thru while yellow but you go thru as it turns red. You are screwed. Camera reads your lisence number and you get the ticket in the mail. This scenario can play multiple times in many intersections over and over. If you stay behind, "to play it safe", then impatient asses behind you will wander why the hell you are not moving forward. So you are trapped and the local revenues go up. Is this what is coming more of???? Say it ain't so.
