Stop+Light+Violation

=__** Stop Light Violations: **__= This page is dedicated to stop light violations, for the people who absolutely have to hurry up when the light turns yellow because they don’t feel like waiting for the next light. For anyone who doesn’t know, yellow means slow down not speed up. If you’re wondering why, we can help.
 * __Brief Description:__**

Say Harrison was on his way to the store, but he was in a hurry to finish dinner before his parents got home. So, he runs to his car and goes on his way at 10m/s. When he’s 50m from the next light it begins to turn yellow. Instead of slowing down at the sight of the yellow light, he speeds up to 2m/s to go right through the 30m intersection. Did he make it? Yes, lucky him. Here’s how:
 * __Scenario:__**

Since his displacement is greater than the amount of distance he had to travel, he made the distance with some change. Had he accelerated at a slower rate he could have crashed or he would not have made the yellow light and gotten a ticket by a passing cop.

Yellow means slow down not speed up so, SLOW DOWN when you see a yellow light. I know that life can seem short, but if you spend your time speeding through it you’ll never really live it.
 * __Avoid the Problem:__**

- These statistics and news articles will demonstrate to your reader how the hazard is relevant to their everyday life.
 * Statistics or News Articles Related to this Hazard (yes, the statistics and articles must be real and cited!)**

- What are the relevant concepts (velocity, position, displacement, etc) for this scenario? - How the outcome of the scenario depends on these concepts (your displacement away from the yellow light determines your acceleration to either stop in time or get through the light).
 * How the Kinematics (principle****s of motion) Relate to This Hazard**

- Brief description of solution(s) - How do the kinematic principles relate to your solution(s)? - Multiple kinematic representations/models which describe the hazard (these representations can be compared to your initial scenario to stress the differences to the reader)
 * How this Hazard Can Be Avoided With a Better Knowledge of Kinematics**
