10 Surefire Ways To Avoid Red Lights

From my recent driving experience, I have learned that there are some absolutely foolproof ways to get "all greens" when you are out driving around town:

1. Receive a text that you want to read and /or respond to.
2. Get something in your eye that either stings or impairs your ability to see.
3. Be ahead of schedule for a meeting you don't want to go to.
4. Hear a loud "Uh-oh" from the backseat followed by silence (or the sound of something dripping).
5. Have a misbehaving child who needs "the eye."
6. Have a coughing or sneezing fit that leaves you breathless.
7. Have an itchy foot.
8. See someone you know driving next to you, but they won't turn and look at you, despite your mad waving.
9. Drop your map on the floor right before the next turn.
10. Try to hand someone in the backseat something, but drop it right where they can seat it but not reach it. And then they start screaming for it!
