Insane Drivers

So everyday on my way to work ( I answer phones and do payroll for my parents), I always see the craziest drivers. Most of the time, these drivers either are in a really expensive car, like a Mercedes, or they are in a POS car, that I am even surprised can go fast. What I dont understand is why people feel that they can just go through red lights, and weave in and out of cars like they own the road. For example, today, there was a white mercedes. We were driving in a 35. I was going about 40, so this car must have been going 50 or more. I was in the right lane, and he flies past me, then cuts right in front of me. The light ahead is red, and he is turning right...am I not mistaken, but dont you have to stop at a red, and then if it is clear, then you can turn right??? Well no, this guy thought since he was cool enough to have an expensive car, that he could just turn on red like he owned the road...and he turned right infront of someone. It really irritates me. On my way home, there was a truck, with a company name on it, who went through a red light where there were cars already going on their green. I mean come on morons, you are driving a company car....now everyone knows what a dumba$$ driver you are. I would never shop there. It just really irritates me because it is so dangerous to drive like that. Is it really that hard to follow the laws of the road and be a decent driver? Florida has a real problem with red light runners....I am scared to go on green..I wait a little bit to make sure I am not going to get hit! Follow the rules people!!

in Knoxville they added red light cameras just before I moved down here. I heard they made an insane amount of money (you even get a ticket if you don't come to a complete stop behind the line when turning right on red). We desperately need them down here!
