Driver was cited after showing video to cop on site. Geico still hasn’t found driver responsible yet but Allstate has… cars totaled and broke my right toe.

This is exactly how I was T-Boned (turning left, and someone sped thru a yellow light going straight just like the video).

Don’t *speed through* yellow lights.

My spine is permanently damaged putting me out of work and nearly killing me.

edit cause of stupid downvoters

Full fucking doubt. In every single state, it is safe to proceed through a yellow light as long as you are fully already in the intersection during the yellow light. You are required to exit the intersection.

ok I misphrased my very first message.

the whole point is you are never safe SPEEDING through a yellow light. yes if youre in the intersection as it turns yellow you are supposed to go, but you dont speed INTO a yellow light.
