Because it leads to dead pedestrians. I walk a lot and right on red is a curse, drivers often only look left for traffic instead of right for pedestrians before turning. Coupled with hoods so high you can't even see kids or short people walking in front of your vehicle it's very dangerous.
- cozzyd 3y agoThe last two vehicles which nearly ran me over in a crosswalk have been pickup trucks... Not sure if they have shitty visibility or if pickup drivers are less likely to conceptualize there might be pedestrians....
- tasn 3y agoI think there are two bigger problems here: people turning when there are pedestrians and the car size inflation. These are not inherent problems with right on red.
- CalRobert 3y agoYet right on red seems to correlate with drivers not paying as much attention to pedestrians and people getting killed https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2590198223000696?via%3Dihub https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S259019822...
