In some places that "lemme just squeeze through" can be pretty egregious.
Whether the system accounts for it or not doesn't change the fact that I've driven in places where you'd be foolish not to pause.

I didn't bring the habit home, at least not to the extent I saw, but it made me a lot more forgiving of people who pause and a lot more aware of how often I actually see people run a red just as it turns green for me.

I've had to drive places where time mattered, and even then five seconds just did not matter.
