The Zebra, The State of Auto Insurance, p. 22 (2019). Over a period of 3 years, 1 red-light running ticket will raise an individual’s premium by $999. 324,760 tickets/year x 3 years x 999 = $970M. One may note that the Insurance Institute of Highway Safety (IIHS), a consortium of auto insurance companies, is a supporter of red-light cameras.

Lei Yu, et.al., for the Texas Dept' of Transportation, Yellow and Red Intervals to Improve Signal Timing Plans for Left-Turn Movement, p. 28. "Traffic laws are 7th priority". The motive of Yu's paper is to denounce Chiu Liu's paper Determination of Left-Turn Yellow Change and Red Clearance Intervals (2002) which Yu co-authored. Liu/Yu's paper introduces a new yellow change interval formula for left turns--a formula which would increase the left turn yellow by several seconds so that drivers can legally enter the intersection. However, Liu, in order to push intersection efficiency, has traffic engineers vote on the design priorities. Traffic engineers vote that efficiency outweighs all other design priorities. Yu thus directs the TxDOT to make drivers run red lights for the sake of intersection efficiency.
