Beating the red light!

I once made this when I was already late for an emergency meeting to attend. I swore that day that I would not be doing that thing again because I almost hit a speeding car who was in a hurry as well. I knew in my heart that it could have been avoided had I stopped and waited for the green light to follow. Accidents do happened in the road especially when other motorists care less about traffic rules. Has this happened to you?

Well, some people do that, I even do that if I am in a real hurry - when I am running late for an exam. But, normally I don't try to beat a red light all the time. I do not like to be seen as a reckless driver. Plus, other lives are on the line aside from mine.

I did have a similar experience. The only thing we will do is just to follow traffic rules to avoid mishaps. We can prevent road accidents by being responsible drivers.
