Short Yellows? Make them longer already!

SHO BumperWell, on my way to Awana the SHO got nailed. The light turned yellow…I used to run yellows when there was a car behind me but lately I’ve been conditioned by the Loma Linda red-light cameras to stop when the light changes…mostly because the yellow is real short. In this case it was pretty clear that I could stop safely, so I did. Then I heard SCREEEECH ….BAM! And behold! The world becomes a brighter place as my shades fly off! The car behind me didn’t have anti-lock brakes, thus it knocked off part of my bumper. Oh well, to the body shop. I think renting a car for a few days (I hope) after an accident here and there is cheaper than the occaisional running a photo-enforced red-light fine in the long run.

    Sorry about your car! I hope the person who hit you was insured and nice about it.

    So far the body shop has done a sloppy job. I hope this doesn’t end up being a big legal mess. I just want the car fixed the way it was before the accident.
