Ahhhhh, so *that's* why

For the second time in about six months I've almost rear-ended someone who slammed on their brakes as soon as the light turned yellow.

It first time was in Hondo- in the rain when I was driving an empty sugar tanker.
The pick-up was sideways when he stopped almost in the intersection and my trailer wheels were skidding along the curb and my cab was in the middle lane.

This time he put the binders on about 100ft from the light as I was accelerating to follow him through the yellow.

Now I know why these other cities are causing wrecks from their red-light cameras.
