So you're saying the intersection is "dangerous" bc someone blew a red light and caused an accident? Sounds like a driver problem, not an intersection problem.

My gripe with that intersection is that traffic really backs up on Morse during busy times and isn't cleared by the light cycling. Agree that there should be long, dedicated right turn lanes with right turn on red allowed at all times.
