While stopped at a red light....

It depends. Am I alone? Am I bored? Are there a lot of cars? Am I the front of the line waiting for the light to change? Is the weather good or bad? Is it a long light that I am familure with? I will look at the other drivers, mostly IF I'm alone and bored. If I'm at the front of the line and don't know or am expecting the light to change soon I won't look. If it is raining I'm less apt to look at other drivers. Of course, if I'm pulling a bottle baby kitten out of the basket to cuddle at a long light I might look to see if anyone notices that I have a baby kitten in my hands.... (most of the time - yes)

Well, I always looked at those pulled up beside me, out of curiosity. But if there is pretty lady inside the car, then it definitely attract much attention I think it's good to check out the people around you when you pull up at the red light. So that we could be more aware of any potential mugger or reckless drivers around us. It's especially important to stay alert when pulling up at the red light during mid night.

WhyWiki, I do but not to closely. I feel that when my mom said it was not polite to stare she was right...LMAO but yes I kind of steal glances, and sometimes catch the eyes of that other person doing the same as I, yet look away quick so as not to make someone uncomfortable....

Hello whywiki, I never checked who is driving next to me while stopping at the red light. Few times my friends told me that they stopped their car next to me, honked me just to say 'hello and I just didn't bother about them *smiles* Even if I catch a glimpse of my friend's car next to me, I just pretend not to look at them *laughs* Isn't it bad?

I don't think I do, but to be totally honest, I haven't really paid any attention to it so I really don't know for sure. I do check out the traffic behind me and ahead of me, but I don't think I am actually looking at the person driving. Besides, I am usually looking in my car for something, like my cell phone or my smokes.

I used to check out all the cars and drivers around me when I would pull up to a red light. But, with all the instances of drive by shootings and the road rage going on today, I usually pay attention to the light and not to my surroundings, other than what I see out of the corners of my eye. I will occasionally glance if something gets my interest. But I think paying attention to your driving is better than checking out the people around you. I do pay attention to those drivers who get too close to me when driving.

Not me because I'm not driving but my husband do always check both ways before he pulled out. I have seen so many crazy drivers on the road. Some are changing lanes without giving signals. Some keep on talking with their cellphones and hardly moved when it's the time to go. This is the reason why I don't like to drive. I like to be in the country road where I am the only one driving.. lol...
