Re: Right turns on red (RTOR).
Had to laugh at the uproar caused by the installation of traffic cams in Mt. Juliet, in particular at the drivers who complained about the possibility of being ticketed for breaking the law. Unfortunately the joke is on the rest of us because at cam-less intersections around town drivers continue to make unsafe roll-through RTOR without any consideration for their responsibility to yield to oncoming traffic. Drivers - it is really pretty simple. If oncoming traffic has to brake to let you make your RTOR, you need to wait for a longer gap.
