Well, that was fun, in an entirely sarcastic tone.

Coming down a wet hill, the light turns amber. Note this is close enough to the light as to be valid to continue on through.

But the car in front of me accelerates... then suddenly decides against this, braking sharply, and skidding down the hill.

Of course, because of this, I now have to plant my foot to the floor, skidding not only down the hill, but into the red light.

So I can expect a traffic violation fine sometime anywhere in the next six months, which I fully intend to contest.
