Even better: learn the pattern of the traffic lights in your commute, and don't slow down if you see it will turn green in less than two seconds.

That's how you t-bone the idiot who doesn't stop at the red light

The only way to avoid that would be to stop at every green light.

You're right, but I think the number of people that run a just-turned-red light far far outnumber the people that just ignore the light altogether.

True. If you're smart enough to time the lights to avoid stopping, hopefully you're also smart enough to watch the cross street and never assume other drivers are obeying the rules of the road.
