Don't you hate it when you are sitting at a red light and the light turns green and 4 more cars go by you making a left and only 4 cars make it through the intersection now because of the light runners taking precious seconds out of your time to cross the intersection.

I drive around all day and I see this kind of stuff all day long. City police cruisers will be the first in line at intersections and they do nothing about it.

But today was extra special....City police cruiser sitting in lane facing me and a guy comes blasting through the intersection forcing the oncoming traffic to stop to let him through and he runs down to the next light, which is only 100 yds down the road and makes another left turn at a red light in oncoming traffic. I'm shaking my head because he just ran 2 red lights that were red when he got there...not yellow and the cruiser is still sitting there eating a twinkie or something....completely oblivious to the law infractions.

I would be a ticket writing fool if I ever became a policeman...momma better watch out....lol

Happens all the time at a intersection near me. Although, normally the people that run the lights normally get stuck in the middle of a intersection, blocking 2-3 lanes. If im first in line i just start pulling into the intersection with the horn blasting. Getting as close as i can to them letting them know how stupid they are for wasting everyones time.

Go into the intersection. If he hits you it is failing to yield. Make sure you do it with a shisty car though.

Quite a few years ago a guy ran a red light and broadsided me and my family. He hit just to the back of the drivers door. I had minor injuries but was knocked cold. The witnesses almost became violent to the guy that ran the light. It's really dangerous stuff and should somehow be stopped.
