It's not like the driver didn't know how red lights work. They most likely got distracted and didn't even relize they were entering an intersection (I don't know what actually happened).

You can put a person into a 6 month drivers ed program but I don't know if that would stop them from getting distracted or stop things like taking stupid risks or speeding or drinking and driving. Everyone knows about these things and why they're illegal, they just choose to do them because they think they can get away with it.

Idiots will be idiots.
