Comment Re: Easy to solve - calibrate them to overestimate (Score 1) 398

There's one junction I know of, where you can't see the exit is clear if you turn left at a crossroad because of buildings and the white line being a long way back. As a result you honestly can't know for sure the exit is clear when you go. At least with the daily mail example, you have the option of not doing it, although depending on the cycle of the lights you may never progress...

There's one intersection in my city where I enter it on a green, and it turns red before I'm on the other side. People have learned to wait 20 seconds after their light turns green to let traffic in the other direction finish.

I don't know what it's like in your country, but in the UK, the light you pass when you enter is the relevant one. The other is just there to make it easier to see. There's always a white line to denote the real stop line.
