Red Light Runners - Caught on Camera

The pilot that was eyeballing the orange Lambo.

That reminds me of an incident where I was waiting to pull out of a gas station fore court. 5 car lengths to my right was a busy stop light.

This kit and a female passenger were approaching from my left and the driver was gawking at the 7. The girl tapped him on the shoulder and pointed at his red light. luckily they got stopped in time.

It made me wonder if one could be held as a contributing factor in an accident, if someone took their eyes off the road to gawk at my unusual car.

I'm pretty sure in these days of "blame others, I don't have to be held responsible for my actions", one could get dragged into a sordid mess. Then your insurance co gets involved.

I've had several similar incidents like this happen. It reminds me of the seinfeld episode where kramer sues the woman for making him crash by walking down the street wearing a bra.

 

In all seriousness, thanks. That video is a good reminder to think twice before trying to beat that yellow.

That is a good mental jog and I have to say that some of those intersections I have crossed (the ones in Oxdnard, CA) so now I will pay even more attention.

Yep the poor rider of the scooter sure made me cringe and the other two people walking, the one who just missed getting hit by the van did not seem to upset, I sure would have been.
