I always stop. My sister didn't before but does now. She got caught by a red light camera. They showed her the video of her not stopping at all. It not only takes a photo, it also showes a brief video. She slowed and continued rolling right through the red light without stopping. I almost got rearended at a stop sign. Guess the guy behind me didn't expect me to actually come to a full and complete stop, look both ways, and then continue on my way.
Depends if I know the area or not. If I know the stoplight or intersection that I'm coming to and can clearly see there is no traffic coming, no I won't come to a complete stop. If I don't know the area, yes I stop.

the problem with that is it becomes a habit. Better to be in the habit of always stopping at red lights or stop signs than to only stop at some when you feel like it.
A red light is a red light...turning or not. Yes I stop!
We have one road here there is a HUGE sign...no turn on red...had a guy throwing a fit the other day because I wouldn't turn. I pointed to the sign as he looked like he was about to have a heartattack, he was so mad. He flipped me off.
I don't care whether they stop or not. Its between them and the police should they get caught.
If I have a pet peeve its people being "citizen cops" behind the wheel. Just mind your own freaking business.
Lighten up, Francis. It was just a question.
I don't care if they get caught either. It's when I stop and the richard craniums behind me start blowing their horns, flashing their lights and sliding to a stop because they planned to blow through a red light, then yeah, I got a problem with it. Or better yet, they're the ones with the problem.
If that makes me a "citizen cop" then don't get behind me. I just might make a citizens arrest
One of my pet peeves is people who don't come to a stop before turning right at a red light. It's the same as running a red light.
Also when there are two right turn lanes, should the inner (non-curb) lane be permitted to turn on red?
What do you think?
Depends on traffic. I usually yeild and stop signs and roll into red lights though.
