I think what was missed here is that I normally do a good job of following the law. The Interaction the day before had me overthinking things, so I was trying to stay ahead of the pack instead of taking my rightful place in the traffic lineup. (because of all her yelling and b1tc4ing)

When I "ran" the reds, I would stop at the red, wait for traffic to pass and then go through after waiting awhile. Entiende?
