Experienced this yesterday, not in TV but here up north. Was at a traffic light that had turned green and didn't blow my horn but wondered why the SUV in front of me wasn't moving. In a split second, I then watched as a truck with attached trailer blow through the red light at a very high rate of speed. If that SUV was not in front of me, I may not have noticed and proceeded immediately when the light turned green. And if the SUV had gone and I followed, well that could have been a very tragic accident.

Sometimes you just have to look upward and say, "Thank you".

Moral of the story - I may start taking your advice from now. Let the impatient drivers behind me blow their horn.
