Then there's the technical problem: the lights in my area flash everyone turning right on red. You see the flash and then get to spend 3-4 weeks waiting for that $450 ticket to come in the mail and decide if it's worth taking a day off to NOT face your accuser. Thus, people simply no longer turn right on red, even though it's perfectly legal, and now traffic backs up into the prior intersection.
They're really great at night. You see a blinding flash, but you don't know who ran what, or if the light is timed wrong. I ended up leaving myself voicemails to get the timestamp, describing the exact circumstances of the flash in case I get the notice in the mail. Since then, I (and many others) now tear through a nearby residential neighborhood to avoid the light.
