Re: O.T. Red light camera
 

No need to appologize in my opinion.

It was marked off topic, and anyone that can't figure out that a post titled
"O.T. Red Light Camera" with the words "Ouch" and a link to a video might
contain a car accident or something, is not very smart in my book.

Re: O.T. Red light camera
 

If nothing else, I hope this video serves to give pause to anyone who
has seen it the next time they see a light turning yellow and think
"oh I can make it!". I have a feeling that's why this video was made
available to the public by the police. While somewhat sickening to
some, at least the video is not so gory as to be seen as irresponsible
of the police to show to the public. I think the reminder of the
possible consequences of running a red light is worth the disgust or
horror one might feel when watching this video.

[rant]
I just don't see why people continue to run red lights all the time
like this. It's becoming almost acceptable to so many people now,
because "everyone else is running the light!"...If you can stop, STOP.
Everywhere I've lived, this has a been a problem. It seems like it's
worse every place I move (first Houston, then Dallas, now Denver)...I
don't know if it's actually worse in each place, or if it's just
getting worse as time goes by regardless of where you are, but just
seems to be worse in each successive place as a result. Either way, I
applaud the red-light cameras. All red-light-runners do is make add to
overall frustration and road rage for those at the intersection who
witness it (and are then delayed in going when their light turns
green), and, worse, as this clip shows, endanger the lives of many
others.

Personally, I hope that damn driver of the PT Cruiser got the book
thrown at them.

Re: O.T. Red light camera
 

75 years old and blatent running of a red light usually equals no
license and no keys, at least around here anyway. My 75 year old
neighbor did that, veered off, hit a pedistrian on the sidewalk, came to
rest against the rock wall in front of the police station. Pedistrain
died. Neighbor didn't remember a thing. Nor did he get to keep his keys
or stay in his house.
