Bunch of idiots on this road. No common sense? Can't see the red light for a hill?

Is it me or do the traffic lights seem very high up?
Unless it's intended, somehow people are not noticing multiple bright red traffic lights at night?
There's got to be something off with the design or psychology of it all. Maybe this is normal for an intersection if someone is always recording?

Looks like a bunch of morons honestly. Dude was trying to move a ping pong table so others don't run over it and people don't even want to wait.

Oh yeah, people won't wait for nothing. I was driving home from a job site this evening and someone was on my bumper as usual. I jerk the steering wheel sharply to the left so the person could go on by. Do you think the person was waiting at the red light when I got there? Sure enough as always.
Nope, that's not abnormal for an expressway-type road with a 45mph speed limit.

The signal height is determined by guidelines given the speed and distance factors.
The faulty parts are the drivers.

There are a few nice (lucky) saves in that video!

Many more videos of the same place on youtube.
The running the red light out of the turn lane is very common here in the Nasty 'Nati-I see it pretty regularly. At least Fresno has SOME traffic enforcement!
Very different than people standing in the road. I have likely stopped and saved about 100 turtles over the years. People get really upset. I think many people have limited capacity to think.
Having said that I pass people going slow all the time. I am unsure why they get so upset about it. If someone wants to go faster there free to go around me as well, better for everyone.

Almost like Las Vegas where you don't dare stop for a yellow light unless you've cleared your 6 as there will usually be 3 cars in the same lane behind you accelerating to make it through the just turned red.

Nice income stream for just setting up a camera from your home. Unless these are FOIA requests of traffic cam footage or some live stream being recorded. Seems too good of a quality for a traffic cam though.
Once in NYC I was honked at for stopping at a red light. Multiple honks for not going from 0-60 .5 seconds after the light turns green. @michaelluscher must have been driving behind me.

OK I see, the sound barrier/wall on the right side might play a factor here. Drivers see cross traffic too late. The wall should have ended, IDK, 50- 100 feet before the light for more visibility.

As a Californian I can tell you that Fresno has never been known for being a nice place to live.

I was once run into at a stop sign by a taxi, whose driver said (and this is a verbatim quote), "I didn't know you were going to stop."
