Got Caught By a Red Light Camera?

95% of advance signal ahead flashers are a waste of money and more importantly, they undermine thier value in the 5% of locations where they are of benefit.

I really appreciate them and pay attention when they tell me I'm not going to make the green. A car would have to accelerate at a blinding rate to make the green when the flashing starts. It's those stupid always-flashing ones that I think are worthless. All they do is tell you there's a signal ahead. Whoop de doo.

Thank you for responding.

I agree. The only time I find the "always flashing" lights helpful is when there is an incline or curve in the road that blocks the upcoming signal light that is situated right below the incline or around the curve - in that case, the flashing lights give you that extra notification that there might be a red light just out of view, or even a line of stopped vehicles.
