If I go red, I go red, if I do it first, shame on me, even if the other guy was worse. I don't care, I blame every loss on the guy I look at in the mirror when I brush my teeth. If I lost, I didn't do everything better than the guy in the other lane, or at least I didn't do enough things better than he did.

In regards to your contention, "it seems like a reasonable balance to me," ....

No, Alan, a "reasonable balance" would be if both cars were treated equally by the rules. They's not.

Also, you failed to answer the burning question in my last query, in reference to your comment about having lost to a "first red light situation."

I asked,"When did your opponent have HIS chance to red light???"

Why didn't you comment on that one-sided situation???

I think I know...
I think we BOTH know...
