No injures? How about we beat the crap out of the guy that ran the red light? The Asshat needs to be hurt for pulling a stunt like that.

So did s/he finish their text message or not? I'm certain that it was important.

Yep, it jumped out and made the driver stop before running it. And the driver was obviously paying more attention to the lights out of fear of financial repercussions from the red light camera. At least the cameras got some pretty good video of the accident. But this has ATS all over the video so it's probably from a promo video on why your city needs traffic cameras.

Not too long ago that accident probably would've been fatal. Crash safety in small cars has come a long way when they only have to deal with the inertia and mass of said small car. But a tenth of a second later he would've plowed the driver side door of that '80s ghetto sled G body (looks like a Buick Regal imo) and would've messed up the driver pretty good. If it had been a blacked out GN / GNX or a T-TypeG body this accident would've been a crying shame. But as it has a vinyl top so it could easily be at home in the back of a junk yard or with 24" rims on it.

And if the cars had been reversed the extra mass of that ghetto sled would've kept it going pretty straight following the impact and the Versa would've been creamed.

If he'd made it through the intersection without an accident, he would have retold his story on fark such that the camera nailed him during a yellow that was green while he was crossing.

Not only ran it, but in the shots from the other angles showed he was going pretty damn fast too. What a piece of shiat, too bad that truck didn't take him out instead.

Actually the guy who ran the light WAS injured, although the injuries were minor. He was charged with a DWI.

DWI eh? Now that there's a reddened wrist that'll last 6 months.

Thank god we have red light cameras so this sort of thing doesn't happen.

Why if there were a redlight camera, this guy would have known not to forget that there were a red light there.

Looks like an Olds Cutlass 4-door to me.

At least it's the car that ran the light that went flying and not the other guy.
