> There apparently is a formula that calculates how long travelers need to leave the intersection and, presumably, if you are still there it means you ran red light. It seems the formula is wrong as it does not grant enough time for lawful travelers in normal conditions.
The condition of waiting for oncoming traffic to clear the intersection so that you may safely make a turn across the oncoming traffic stream is a common one, and presumably leaves most drivers in the intersection when the light turns red in dense traffic.
- jagged-chisel 7y agoI witness drivers in this situation just sitting right where they are, past their stop line, left signal blinking, far too close to the perpendicular travel lanes, refusing the clear the intersection until they get the arrow. Worse: they're the only ones wanting to turn, they're past the sensor, and the next cycle is solid green only.
