Can't have some do gooder saving lives.
They could have been paying in the millions.
Many, many years ago I was sitting in my Corvette, waiting for a left turn light. When it came, I realized I wasn’t in gear so I slammed it into first (maybe 1/2 second to 1 second). As i pulled through the not-so-wide intersection, it turned red as I crossed. Got a very dirty look from a cop on a motorcycle but he went on. Had someone with me who remarked how short the green and the yellow were. Never saw one like it before or since.
