Drivers and red lights

2015-06-11 00:12:27.131704+02 by Dan Lyke 0 comments

It's Shockingly Common for New Yorkers to Blow Through Red Lights:

When students from Hunter College conducted an observation of the traffic at 50th and 7th, they saw almost 30 percent of drivers running the red there. At the intersection of 88th Street and 4th Avenue in Brooklyn, another spot that the students studied, a staggering 37.3 percent of drivers kept cruising after the light had turned against them.
