Now I have to complain about red light dawdlers. The ones who seemingly just remove their foot from the accelerator pedal and allow the car to slowly idle forward after the light turns green. Meanwhile, the gap between them and the car in front rapidly grows, trapping everyone behind them as the light changes back to yellow.

Get out of my way, people!

I hate to get overly technical, but despite the movement of the car, the timing of the light remains unchanged.  The advantage gained is in distance, not time.


P.S.  The term "red light" has been found to be insensitive to traffic lights everywhere.  They now identify as Signals of Transitioning Color.
