Even though the opposite traffic had a green light, no one moved because I was caught in the middle waiting to turn left. However, some woman in her Lincoln driving 50 mph in the first lane just came barreling through the Red light as if it was never there. Since I was in a convertible I threw my hands up at her and she just continued on her way. If I hadn't been sitting there blocking traffic, this woman would have wiped out numerous cars because she just didn't care or was not paying attention.
Probably knew exactly what she was doing.
Golfing Eagle, one point for your side as to why there should be no red left turn signals!

Okay, back on topic.
