I’ve seen people run red lights, too ... but I depend on the laws to the extent when I driving down a thoroughfare and I have a green light, I don’t stop at that intersection When the light is green for me ... and look both ways first, and then go through the intersection. No, I simply drive right through that intersection when the green light is on my side.
In fact I have NEVER ONCE seen traffic stop at such a green light, as if it were a stop sign and then proceed after stopping. I ... and others ... depend upon the laws and others following them, given that officials are prepared to penalize people for not following the laws.
That’s exactly how I want my fellow citizens to act with their driving, and car dealers act in not scamming me out of my money and telecoms not scamming me out of service that I’ve paid for.
What you want...and reality...are two very different things.
It works for me at intersections with red and green lights ... and ... it works very well, across the board, with myself and other citizens, in a whole lot of other matters. It’s very much “reality” for me in my life.
