Horse hockey. I drive a 7,000 lb. diesel pickup. From 40 or 45 mph, safely stopping within 2 or 3 seconds
might be possible on an absolutely perfect road surface. It ain't gonna happen on anything less that perfect conditions.
Nailed it again Pawpaw, intersection lights can be configured for best safety where they are located for prevention of accidents. This is what should be done. The sad thing is, they can also be configured with the ridiculous camera to get the pay day, NOT SAFETY. These cameras need to be gone, period.
These things are disgusting. Light management, for the ticket instead of safety, ridiculous.
