Oddly enough, apparently the law is now that you're not allowed to enter
the intersection once the light turns YELLOW, not red (assuming you're
going straight through).  I know how idiotic this sounds, but a friend
got a ticket for just this, in Boulder.  I don't know if this is a city,
state, or county law; perhaps someone who knows traffic law around here
could explain this one better...
