Wayne,
That is the norm here in Hawaii - you go through a pink, look around for any
cops, but then see several following you through - no worries. They delay
the other side's greens for a couple of seconds just to keep them safe.  |
Try Miami, AFTER the light turns red, THREE cars go thru. NOT TURN, thru traffic. When you bust a red in Fl. You say, "I Miamied that light."
Then there are the 97 year old 4 foot tall Grandmas driving full boat Caddies and Lincolns in the left lane of the Interstate at 35 mph. You can't see them but you know they're in there! AKA Florida Frogs [a little bump showing BELOW the rim of the steering wheel.
