Red Arrow Runners...what do you do?

[allbaugh_04]

I'm ashamed to admit, I floor it when the light turns green, like I am going to hit them.

So what do you do?

Should I hit them? I wouldn't be at fault right, but I could have avoided the accident.

I just get cuz this shit is getting out of hand. It happens regularly at almost every red light, that m'fker that thinks they can just sneak through.

yup... you'd be at fault depending on where you hit them... hit them in the front you'd be fine... hit them in the rear you'd be screwed... t-bone them and it's up in the air on wether you could have avoided the accident...

You speak from experience? My light is green...

[Spaz]

only as a witness to an accident... even if your light is green you could still be at fault because the accident is considered as avoidable...

[allbaugh_04]

Yea, I figured...but it could of been avoidable for them too.

I thought maybe you were talking about the stupid red arrow late at night.

I run them. I stop and I give it a reasonable amount of time to change. If it is going to change, I wait. If it hasn't changed in about 30 seconds, I go.

I'm not talking about the busy intersection that has traffic all the time. I'm talking about the intersection that at 3 in the morning has no one coming for as far as you can see.

Oh, and I don't actually try to hit the last minute light people, but I do like to make them think twice about doing it again.

Well...me too. I'm not that crazy.

I run those late night ones too. I wait at least 30 seconds or a minute and if my light is green, I have no problem running them.

[cammed goat]

I let them go. I just wanna see someone get wrecked for their idiocy. As long as I'm not the one getting wrecked, and I can be a witness, I'm cool.

[allbaugh_04]

Am I a hypocrite now, or is it ok to run the late night ones?

[wheeliE-maxx]

I like to scare those who can't wait their turn at four way stop signs-low speeds. At a light, not so much

As long as you don't get caught/wrecked...you're golden.

Red arrers erwhere round dese parts.


As for flooring it off the line on green, I don't. I've been hit that way before so I've been cautious ever since. Always look a few times after it turns green before moving. Probably pisses people off, but whatever.

Although, if I'm already moving, and someone in the opposite direction takes left turn across my lane, provided there's no other danger, I'll speed up a tad to get their heart racing
