What is it about running Red Lights in the ACT?

Have you ever run a red/stop light?

Was it intentional?

Since moving to the Nation's Capitol I have seen some of the most blatent law breaking in this regard.

It doesn't usually happen on intersections with red light cameras, though I do see the occassional flash from those.

Tailgating is another notable passtime. This little country mouse is used to have more personal space. And lets face it no one gets that close to my rear end without a decent meal and a movie.

There is a great radio ad here at the moment that states our traffic jams last 15 minutes not 3 hours, and its true.

So what is the rush? Set the alarm twenty minutes earlier.

Have a leisurely trip into work, grab a latte to takeaway and listen to Scotty and Nigel. Chill, you'll get there safely and have the opportunity to see all the other idiots on the road without joining their ranks.
