You can't run a yellow. You run red lights. You go through a yellow or a green. You dont 'run' yellow or green lights.

And actually in the situation you described, you are not to pull in to the intersection. You are to stay behind the line till you can turn. People do what you described so they can sneak across. Those kinds of folks cause deaths. Do you do this?

And I thought you were the safest driver on XOC?
