red light runners

Intersection law breakers

Red light runners are drivers who proceed through an intersection after the traffic signal has turned red.

The term appears most often in discussions of traffic safety and enforcement: Red light runners cause thousands of accidents each year.

Red light cameras photograph license plates to ticket offenders automatically.
