The people of Lansing like to run red lights. I am not talking occasionally, I am talking regularly. When the light turns red, these people are betting that the cross traffic will not get moving before they are through the intersection. And, what’s more, the light doesn’t turn red as they are entering the intersection, it turns red before they enter the intersection.

Today, I saw a school bus run a red light. And again, the light turned red before the bus entered the intersection so the bus could have stopped in time if it had wanted to. These people must figure that the world will watch out for them.
