New Research Predicts Which Cars are Likeliest to Run Lights at Intersections

CAMBRIDGE, Mass.–(ENEWSPF)–December 1, 2011. In 2008, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, 2.3 million automobile crashes occurred at intersections across the United States, resulting in some 7,000 deaths. More than 700 of those fatalities were due to drivers running red lights. But, according to the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety, half of the people killed in such accidents are not the drivers who ran the light, but other drivers, passengers and pedestrians.
