Depends upon whether I can safely stop or not.0

If I can stop without giving everyone in the car whiplash, or risking a rear end shunt, I'd stop.
I'd make more effort to stop if someones waiting to cross my path in the middle and theres no filter arrow.0 -
All the above plus if the road is wet.The man without a signature.0

If I am at the lights as they turn amber I go through. If they turn to amber as I approach I stop. If they are the stupid lights that do not allow traffic to clear the exit leaving the road blocked I will risk going through just on the turn to red.Truth always poses doubts & questions. Only lies are 100% believable, because they don't need to justify reality. - Carlos Ruiz Zafon, The Labyrinth of the Spirits0

well if i was the idiot infront of me just now she'd say, i'd brake to a crawl sharply,then try and accellerate quickly as i can but stall halfway over the white line, restart and gun it over on a redlight.0

Entirely depends on my speed, the traffic, my distance from the signals and from all that my best estimate of if I can make it past the lights before they turn red.0
