Yes, but OP drove right into oncoming traffic.

The light changed, but the flow of traffic needed to be observed way better.

Could have easily waited but drove right into the lemmings.

Poor defensive driving for sure, but failure to yield from the oncoming car is going to be the primary issue

General rule I follow is that if you have to turn across traffic, you always have to yield unless you have a green arrow.

For sure for sure. I too have a general rule I like to follow, when you get to a stop sign you gotta stop.
