While collisions have gone up fatalities have gone down. No I can’t find the link where I read this. The conclusion was that the rear end collision when someone was trying to stop for a light was far less dangerous that someone getting T-boned by someone running a red light.

Statistical garbage. They're not comparing apples to apples. Thousands run "red" lights, that is the very last second from yellow to red.
Now if someone runs a solid red light. That is a danger, but no camera is set to capture those egregious and truly dangerous violators because there's no money in it.
