Selfish people like this can cost 1-5 cars not making it and have to wait another rotation. 1 second to realize its green, another second for someone to honk, one more second to move the car

Tbf, at least in my neck of the woods, if they don't hit the gas within literally (the actual meaning of literally) it's common practice to honk within 0.5 seconds of the light changing. Now I learned to drive in Philly and they gave you 1-1.5 seconds before honking. It took a minute to get used to. Now, though, if you can't give me one second, I'm going to wait another second and a half and then roll really slowly.
