How often does this happen?

Sounds like you’re one of those idiots who’s on their phone during a red light and needs the car behind you to provide a wake up call.

    Eh, I've seen it happen too, more than once. To be staring at the traffic light behind a line of cars and hear someone in front honk immediately when the light turned green. It is ridiculous.

    I missed the change of the first traffic light I stopped at when I had just bought my first car, I had stopped so the light was hidden behind my rearview mirror, got a deserved honk

    Why didn't you move your head?

    What part of "first car" confuses you?

    Sorry, I thought it was clear that it was an unfamiliar situation as a new driver, the lights was in a slightly unusual configuration so I didn't see the light as I pulled up and thus never realized that I needed to shift my head to see it.
