You're at an intersection, there's a redlight, you're "supposed" to stop, but it's not like there's any cars arriving from any other direction so you're endangering no one when you drive through a redlight.

If you break the law in the woods, but no one is around to hear it, did you break the law?

Any decently-managed light will go flashing-red for one street and flashing-yellow for the other, during times when there's little traffic.

Many intersections have cameras now and will snap a pic of your plate.

In Puerto Rico, after midnight, red lights are effectively stop signs. You have to stop, but if after properly checking both ways, no one comes, you can proceed without having to wait for green. I don't know until what time in the morning.

There is no "would of", "should of" or "could of".
There is "would've", "should've" and "could've".

I think you mean technically. Legally there are laws to not running red lights.

I used to know a guy who would never stop at red lights unless traffic was coming... and even then he would sometimes do it anyway.

lol good question.

seeing how there are idiots that think speed "LIMIT" is merely a speed "SUGGESTION". i wonder if there are idiots that think STOP sign or RED LIGHT are also merely suggestions.

How long did he get away with it? Or is Darwinism still pending?
