Could've ended badly.

(No audio) I almost posted this in old4570's "Stupid truck drivers!" thread because it's sort of related, but thought it might be rude. The zoomed-in part is not additional footage, so this is in real time to illustrate how long the light was red. I should point out that this particular intersection has an about 5 second cross-traffic signal delay instead of the usual near-instant change. I don't necessarily think the delay is for this specific reason, but it could've very well saved someone's bacon in this instance. (Edit to correct minor typo.)

I don't think that one counts as "stupid"!

If it was here then I would suggest you send the video in to the police, which would probably make the roads a lot safer.
