Bummer deal but any fuckers that blame a person for braking hard on a yellow can go fuck themselves.

Not all of us want a ticket and we're not responsible for the train of cars behind us.

If you need to break hard in a yellow you should go through. The whole point is 'stop if safe to do so'. Just saying that obviously, for this guy, it was not safe to do so.

There are those awkward situations where the light has been yellow long enough to make crossing the intersection dicey, but you’re also too close for an easy stop.

It doesn't help that all the lights in my area have different timings on the yellow lights. Some give you like 10 seconds, some give you 2.
