Forthwith, let it be proposed that:
*If such a vehicle approaches an intersection with a traffic light; and
*Traffic at said intersection is backed up into the actual intersection; and
*The light turns yellow;
*If Said vehicle continues into the intersection at the yellow light rather than stopping as common sense dictates; and
*Said vehicle proceeds to completely block said intersection such that no other traffic can pass;
Let it be proposed that it be completely legal to drag the driver of said vehicle out of the car and beat them senseless with a tire iron, baseball bat, or other heavy cudgel.
Actually killing the driver is frowned up, and will be punished as a misdemeanor offense.
That is all.

I bet your pickup has enough room in the back for a decent sized trebuchet . . . you could use such a device to hurl said yellow light offender into the next county.
Don’t forget that this also has to be listed as a legally acceptable excuse to be late to work. I think you should automatically get 15 min to be late if you have to do this. . . Sorry boss I know I am late but I this problem at the intersection. . . It could be listed as public service time on the books. . . = )
I went to some vendor training in Mass, I noticed several things about driving there. To wit:
1) It's not really red until the last car of the entire line of vehicles clears the intersection.
2) If there is room for two cars abreast on each side, it's a four-lane road regardless of road markings.
3) When the light turns green, you are obligated to hit the gas regardless of if your way is clear. Otherwise the douche behind you will hit the horn.
Thankfully I didn't leave anything in Mass when I left, so I have no reason to go back any time soon.
I still refer my 3 D cell Maglight (tm)Whe i was working security in the project of North St. Louis, i destroyed a 3 d cell Maglight (tm) and a nice 71 chevy Impala with the driver who tried to run me over still inside. very satisfying, and Mag replaced the light for just the shiping costs. :)
When I worked in San Francisco (what was I thinking) they would sometimes have cops in the intersections giving out tickets for people that couldn't clear the intersection.
They had really nice sticky tickets. They would write the license plate down and then peel it off and slap it on the bottom of the drivers window. It was a $50 ticket and they would do several with every change of the lights.
Cha-ching!
