I agree. And the same thing to people who honk if you don't turn right at a red light. They can honk all they want when I'm traveling south and am at the intersection of 466 & Rolling Acres Road. 466 looking east is a bit of a curve, and it's impossible to determine for sure what lane the oncoming cars are in.

Plus it is not mandatory to turn red on a red light, nor to inch out into the intersection to turn left on a green if you can't see who's coming.

You should always proceed when it is safe and legal to do so. And that means right turn on red, left turn on green with no oncoming traffic, and others. This saves fuel as it moves traffic at a safe and even pace. It helps our environment as you don't leave 5 other cars behind you wasting fuel.

My biggest pet peeve is when your the eighth car back at a traffic light and car number 3 fails to go on the green light. So you end up sitting through an extra light. It's because they are texting. It's an addiction. Watch how many people stop at a light and immediately grab their phone and start texting. What can possibly be that important that it can't wait until you get someplace and park. I just don't get it. Cars and or phones will be made so they will not be able to text in a car. Insurance companies will demand it if current accident trends continue.

Those that complain on TOV about what other drivers should do, or don’t do,
seem to have trouble accepting things they can’t control!
