In Brazil, at night, this is a very common act. People are scared to stop and get robbed. I’m living in Portugal and they have an annoying traffic light with sensors that turn into red if you go over a certain speed limit. I sometimes pass these types of traffic light. Have you ever done this too?Have you ever passed a traffic light red light?

It is ok to do it as long as there is no risk of accident or to get a traffic ticket.

I have only ran red lights by accident, I have ran them when they are new and I don't realize they are there. It must be pretty scary to live in a place where you don't feel safe stopping at traffic lights. This is what I love about Mylot, you don't really think that things like this actually happen, when in other parts of the world it is common place. It really is an interesting world and getting smaller every day.
