Seriously. Drivers really seem to lose their sense of time. Going 5 mph slower (or even 15) for a couple minutes won’t impact your arrival time (or will do so only negligibly) because you’re just going to have to wait at the next light anyway. And getting angry while driving is just as dangerous as other causes of distracted driving.
60 seconds is easily achieved for someone further down the line who has to wait another light cycle. Not paying attention to the green light has a rippling impact.
Yeah I fucking love it when some asshole on his phone takes forever to go at the green and only three cars get through and to have to wait an entire light cycle which is at minimum 90 seconds.
When the light turns green and you are unobstructed, you go. Simple as.
They’d have to be there well over 60 whole seconds to have a slightly meaningful and somewhat noticeable impact on one’s commute.

Won’t someone think of all the extra money they could have made their boss in that whole entire minute of time!? 😔
Edit: damn, I felt so certain that the /s was already implied, but okay…
