[QUOTE="Bounce, post: 831250, member: 257"] There was a similar bill somewhere a few years ago. I still have a problem with it being implied that anyone is running a red light. There's still a requirement to stop. There's still a requirement to take precautions and wait to determine if the light isn't functioning properly (failing to sense a road-legal vehicle). It's actually more an issue of treating the malfunctioning traffic light as if it were a stop sign. There are quite a few places that already address how to interact with a malfunctioning traffic light. In those cases it's a defense to prosecution. That means taking time in court if you can't discuss it with the officer on the side of the road who chooses to write a ticket. [/QUOTE]
