They act like old people when the light is green, but act like nuts when it's red.

When you spend over an hour stuck in traffic trying to get anywhere you have a tendency to space out every once in awhile. Not to mention there have been numerous accident related deaths due to people running red lights. It always seems to be the people who had a green light that end up dead.

Because we're not in a huge rush to get anywhere. The red light cameras have people stopping sooner (which is what they are designed to do).

Look up "The Cascade Effect."
It happens everywhere there is traffic, not just here. Sorry to disappoint you.

I dunno, I'm just the opposite but, then again, I've been pulled over for speeding way too many times!
