    whose fault was it?
    i think it was more like both of them.
    u should slow down by a yellow not speed up and wen it turns green u should look first and than go.

    An early green can be defined as someone who starts driving, knowing the light will be turning green yet it is still red. But at that time the light would be Yellow or red for traffic going in the other direction.

    This could have been tragic, the car could have smashed into Kol Tuv market, and then where would I shop?
