So, following your logic, because some lights stay green for a long time it's Ok to not look at them to see if they might actually change, causeing you to have to stop? If you don't treat them as stale and are not prepaired to safely stop, get rear-ended or get hit while running the light, panic and make the uninformed wrong choice are you better off? If you move your eyes every 2 seconds and glance ( 1/2 second's time) at the light you will be able to see the change. Nobody said you should be driving, staring zombie-like at only the green light. There are many important things you should be focusing on as you drive, a potential high-risk situation ahead of you should be one of them. Most crashes happen at intersections, I want to be driving towards one paying full attention to something in them that may demand I stop suddenly and safely. That's the way I drive and what I teach. Your driving may vary, not vaild in all provinces and States...void where prohibited by law, contents may shift while in transit
