An increase in minor accidents, and decrease in major accidents involving death, which is exactly what you want.
- techslave 7y agowell, you don’t actually want the increase in minor accidents.
- toomuchtodo 7y agoSo install roundabouts instead. No need for red light cameras or traffic lights, and you reduce the most serious perpendicular and head on crashes to nothing.
- rootusrootus 7y agoI'd be interested in seeing data on this claim. The only people causing fender benders by panic stopping at every yellow light are the same people already paying attention to traffic signals to begin with. Major accidents are caused by people who blow the light entirely (e.g. drunk), not the folks who run a "pink" light.
