I got stuck at a red light last summer with a cop behind me the light never changed after the cycle he honked his horn I turned and looked at him and he waved me through. If you treat it as a stop sign and actually stop and give it time to change and then proceed through with extreme caution I doubt any cop is going to hassle you but if you do a california stop at every red light trying to be an douchebag you deserve to get the ticket.
