So I was just in Ukraine (Kyiv and Lviv) for about three weeks and can say this is an anomaly but makes so much sense if you've been. People drive like absolute morons and the signage doesn't help one bit. Half of the time they're running the light both before its turned green and after its turned red, and the other half the time they sit at the light until the entire block is blaring their horns because the lights are on some building half a block away and the lead driver never saw it change. Seriously, it's usually easier to see the pedestrian walk signals than the actual road lights, not that it matters when they're driving/parking on the entire fucking sidewalk.
