I assume that those clear license plate covers that protects from red light cameras are not allowed on trucks?

There are two intersections on my route that change so fast there is no way they are safe.
One, a junction, changes so fast from red to green to red again that from a stop you will be entering the intersection against the yellow and it will be green the other way as you are passing through. I treat it as a stop signed intersection. I am stopping regardless of the color of the light as I approach because it will be red before I get there.
The other, an intersection, changes almost as fast but only changes if there is a vehicle stopped at the light going the other way. It is just over a hill so you won't know what you've got until you are past the point of no return if you are at the speed limit.
Here is what bothers me the most about these:
You can manage these situations safely if you know about them. But if it's your first time down that road... I hope you don't kill someone.
And these are state road intersections. It's not some town that doesn't know any better.Rusty Trawler, x1Heavy and tinytim Thank this. -
