Default Re: I \"ran\" a red light, cop sucks at pulling me over (mspaint + tl;dr

[ QUOTE ]
In California, if any part of your car is in the intersection, meaning across the line (not the closest line of the crosswalk, but the intersection line) then you are NOT running a red light. If the story happened exactly as you told it, you most definitely did not run a red light. Of course, that doesn't mean that the cop didn't *think* that you ran the light.

Its the same in Iowa, I think its very standard. I also though everyone knew that if you entered the intersection on yellow you were good to go.
