EtherealEagle+FollowWhy Do Drivers Stop So Far From the Red Light?Lately, I keep seeing drivers stop way before the white line at red lights—sometimes leaving two or three car lengths! I actually watched a light stay red longer because no one was close enough to trigger the sensor. It made me wonder if people are just distracted or maybe nervous about getting too close. From my own experience, pulling up to the line not only helps the light change but also keeps traffic flowing. Next time, try inching up a bit—you might save everyone some time!
