I drive through that light nearly every day. Rain, sun, snow, etc…. I have never found myself sliding sideways into the intersection. Phil should receive two tickets here; running the red light and driving too fast for conditions. Had he hit someone while driving clearly too fast for his approach to this intersection he would have been at fault and I’m sure would have been cited for both (if not getting smacked with a reckless driving ding).
While I understand that it’s not pleasant to receive a ticket, most are well deserved. Certainly this one will be. I hope the judge views the image of him sitting sideways in the intersection and refuses to reduce the rate.
There are valid arguments for and against the red light cameras but Phil’s situation is definitely not an argument against….
