If you built a slower car knowing about the first red light rule, well, you knew the rules, they haven't changed in around 45 years. I guess you'd build a house between an airport and a landfill, then complain about jet noise and the garbage smell.

I don't see how it could be stated better than this. Only a slow car that always leaves first could fail to see the other side. I'm in the middle, I do both. I prefer to not having to have the other car distract me, I prefer to leave first. Faster cars don't worry about being green when they have already won. I'll take a shot I wouldn't normally take if I already won, just to see if I can get away with it. I know I'm not the only one.
