Red Light Running Most aggressive driving enforcement seems to be focused on speeding. Speeding is the number one cause of crashes in Pennsylvania. Red light running and other intersection crashes are a big problem too. Pictured here, Allentown Police Sergeant Joe Vargo issues a citation for a red light violation. Strict enforcement of red light violations can help reduce crashes in your community.
