I saw this driving home from work a couple days ago. A work near a busy shopping center and freeway. Nearly all of the intersections have dedicated left turn lights. We all know how they work: Green for left turners, red for everyone else. Green for everyone else, red for left turners.
The left turn lane had the green arrow for both sides, my side had more people turning or making u-turns so the light to go straight turned green along with the green left turn arrow. A car in the opposing lane somehow decided that since we could go straight, so could she. She was no more than three feet away from t-boning a car u-turning. The woman drove through the majority of a large intersection on a red light. The car this woman almost hit was too nice to honk at her idiocy, the vehicle behind the near accident victim wasn't as he still had the green.
