This is one type of accident that can be prevented......When sitting
at an intersection or approaching an intersection, you have to ASSUME that somebody is in the process of running a red light. You have to scan down the roadway to look for somebody speeding or not slowing down to stop. I usually try
to look a block down the street in case some idiot is approaching going 100
miles per hour. Normally you might go years and never see somebody running the light, but then your diligence will wind up saving your life.Over my years of driving I've probably saved my life four times by assuming every intersection has a red light runner headed straight for me.
