Red light runner nearly gets T-Boned

This is dashcam video footage of a van waiting for the light to turn green. When it does, he proceeds to go only to almost collide with a red light runner. This could have been real bad. Was it distracted driving for the red light runner? That's why it is always good to have a witness in these situations. In this case, the dashcam would have been helpful if there was a collision. The other driver could have said the van ran the red. Your word against his. Drive safe friends.
