Re: red lights
it makes abs useless, airbags useless, and sometimes seatbelts....
why bother. Just give me 16 guage minumum and .25 inch framing..and if it weighs less than 4000 pounds i call a subcompact.
cars thrash around like rag dolls, even the SUVs. Ridiculous. As if earth, ya know that planet we live on being 99% steel is going to be a problem making cars tougher. :

Re: red lights
Most of those videos are of people who aren't paying attention. Here in LA, I see people run red lights on purpose. I even know how to plow through an intersection with red cameras without setting them off. I've seen it done right outside our office.BS'er formally known as Rebeldryver

Re: red lights
well that sucks,, but thats life...
the fact that they needed to go as far back as 2004.. says something...
a lot was from the same light..
I wonder if that light is like a few around here..
crest a hill and there it is... no warning and a 45-50mph speed limit road...
so an out of town driver has no idea it's coming..
as alot of those.. the car was fly'n with alot of cars stopped...

Re: red lights
I seriously was evaluating it to see if there was anything the other fella could do.... and the answer really is not very much.
That light with the buildings around it left you totally blind to crossing traffic... so you couldn't anticipate someone doing it...
I teach others to watch out for EVERY idiot especially idiots with cell phones.... and to watch Head movement... as it often indicates a minimal attention span...

Re: red lights
The driver of that Activity Bus deserves an award. Those things don't handle all that well and s/he pulled it out. But this is more proof that real people really can't drive and perform other tasks - like use the cell phone. Studies with a driving simulator prove that the percentage of folks who can multitask behind the wheel is about 2%. It turns out to be the same population as those who can fly a fighter aircraft (or, I suspect, an attack helicopter). But every teenagers thinks they can.

total b/s as every crash is preventable.. but they happen.. and unless you've never cause one... you don't have much to say..
as one, you cause one preventable crash, and two.. you don't know the facts...
some not ,all, could be from brake failure , or a health issue like a stoke or heart attack...
some are from ,stupid mistakes...
also.. everyone that cry's about cell phones.. stop it.. thats the new, scape goat...
if you can talk in a car to a person beside you.. and not crash you can talk into a phone/mike..
the fact that. most say people can't is bunk.. as crashes happened before cell phone and will long after they are gone the way of the doe doe..
also... most of those clips. the car with the green light can see the other way, and was also not pay'n attention.. or they'd have , try'd to not get hit...yes the have the right of way. but.. if pay'n atention.. 9 time out of ten ,can avoid the crash. by keeping an eye on the other roads..
so, stop use'n the cell phone b/s as a scape goat..
cause ,REALLY.. if you can't talk on a phone and drive.. go turn in your lic. as your are a hazard on the road...
a cell phone is no more at fault than a radio or a person in the car talking to you..

Re: red lights
I've never had a stoke before...but I see a butt-ton of idiots
running around on the phone, or texting while driving.
Those folks, I'll rip a new asshole when I get next to them at a light.
Here in Michigan, it is now illegal to drive and text,
but it still don't stop em.
Just the other day while driving with Mindy, I got cut off
by an idiot on his phone. He just happened to stop at the same store we did,
I waited for him to get off his phone, while giving him the stink-eye the whole time.
I then verbally throttled his ass, he then said "I'll try to pay more attention".
I said "If I see you on the road, on your phone-I'll run your ass in the ditch"!
