Watch this guy stop desperately to avoid the red light camera. Only watch the first minute.

Mmmm I did that once....guy in front was being more-than-cryptic as to whether he was going or stopping, finally went and I realised I had no time left :?

...and ended up ABSing to a halt over the line in the middle of a busy intersection....

"Safety" cameras. :lol:
