bottom line is that a red light is a traffic control device. Its designed to bring order and safety to our intersections, anything more than that and its an unneeded add on. I can see giving tickets and such for blatant running a solid red light, one that’s been solid for some time, and is well passed the “all lights at intersection red” phase. The proper way to go through a yellow is off the gas, foot ready on brake, anything to disturb that practice is kinda dumb too. I don’t think for the world to function we need that “line in the sand” mentality for red lights. This debate is even worse than the one about weather or not to run a red to see a dieing relative. ---

> [@evolve](#): > > Jack, I’ve always thought highly of you. And I, you… but I’m not “arguing over” opinions or thoughts or what ifs or rumors. Yes, I have my own opinions… but I’m not arguing those. The current law, wherever you live, is you have to stop for red lights and be in complete control of your vehicle at all times. That is the law. These cameras don’t change that **fact**. You can’t disagree/argue with a fact. You can disagree on opinions… but I haven’t really argued opinions in this thread. I’ve already stated that I have slid through a red light because of ice and unsafe speeds. I have not done it since then (yr 2000?). > [@LZ](#): > > All you need to look at is Jacks sig to figure out how much time he spends city driving :lol: diesel lifted truck + bike with siqqq v8 + parked on lawn…I think he just enjoys arguing… Come on now… those are the perfect vehicles for city driving… they will get you out of the city in a hurry. > [@jt76](#): > > whiny bitch You’re a fag.

I ran several red lights when I was traveling to see a dying relative. I entered and or stopped with caution and then proceeded with caution. Ticket me… WTF do I care? Better than a cop keeping you on the side of the road for a half hour. Got from Akron to Sloppy Joe’s Hospital in less than 20 minutes. Would have gotten over 5 tickets… would have been worth every penny. I think I was able to get to the hospital on my own faster than I would have with a police escort. BUT - You have to pay to play. Sorry it took so long to respond… I’ve been installing cameras around the city. ---

Did anyone catch the biggest BS artist(Byron Brown) ever on WBEN a few minutes ago? I think he actually answered one out a dozen questions but he spoke for several minutes. They asked him yes or no questions and I don’t remember him ever using the words yes or no! He is the absolute best at saying ABSOLUTELY NOTHING in the most amount of time. Seriously WTF? I would love to interview him and tell him he can only use the words yes or no, I think his brain would explode. Can you imagine his wife having to deal with this BS when she asks him if he wants Steak for dinner? She probably has to listen to 5 minutes of BS just to answer a simple question. ---

> [@Jack](#): > > Sorry it took so long to respond… I’ve been installing cameras around the city. :2fingers: , I guess that makes more sense to your view on things… I personally dont drive in the city all that often, but its bullshit to know that the yellow light times will be adjusted if necessary, on top of the fact that this is NOT about safety, its about profit, thats it. ---

> [@Joe](#): > > ugh. > ITS NOT A MOVING VIOLATION. They can’t prove it was you driving the car, so they can’t give you points. It’s as simple as that. Insurance doesn’t give a shit if someone else got 200 red light tickets in your car, as long as they didnt hit anything Red light cameras take three pictures, one showing who is driving, on showing your license plate and one showing you car in the intersection with the light red. ---

Brown said you won’t get points if it wasn’t you but you must pay the fine. So basically everyone should “distort” the truth and just pay the fine. (It’s all about safety though wink, wink) ---
