How is that road shittily marked? I could see, even from the crap video, exactly where to drive. Perfectly fine double lines in the middle, perfectly visible edge markings on the right side. Perfectly visible red light. Yeah there's a crappy slight bend right before the light and before you turn that bend that puts you head on with the red light telling you to stop, you're basically going straight towards a green light that's meant for the road coming from the right. I bet it got confused by that.

The driver, who had been through the intersection earlier, says the light is green when it's red.

  Which says something about his ability at this whole thing I guess, if he can't get it right even after having been through it. So, I guess you are saying it's not just shittily marked (which it's not) but also the lights are confusing, I re-watched it to check that. The red light comes into view first actually and only then does the green one come into play, but fair enough that this doesn't say much. As soon as you're past the big bend and going straight towards the light (i.e. before the final bend) I can clearly see one red light that the car and driver are facing head on and another green light, which is slightly turned on an angle from the car/driver. As we get closer, we can even see that they did this on purpose, i.e. the red light is purposefully not right above the road and facing the road head on (which would only be the tiny part of if after the slight right bend) but is clearly meant for the people coming around the big bend, so they can see from afar that there's a red light. Then as you turn the slight right bend before turning left onto the main road, you have the regular lights as you would see at any t-intersection and they're clearly red. Also any driver that is unclear of what the lights mean should simply slow down so they have more time to survey the situation, which if they interpret all the perfectly visible lights correctly at a late point only, they are slow enough that breaking would stop them where they should stop. Instead it seems that people are siding with the auto-pilot, which thinks that he very clearly has a green light and takes the intersection at speed. It barely slowed down from 30 to 27 before taking the actual left turn of the intersection so it seems to have been very sure of what it's seeing. So if people are saying that this is an unclearly lit intersection, the auto-pilot disagrees and it thinks that it very clearly is that green light that's meant for the road its on.

  Some people simply should not be allowed to operate motor vehicles. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
