Most drivers that go through red lights do so right after when yellow becomes red. A very small amount of drivers go's through red when the red light is on for a while and if they do a red light camera wouldn't stop them, only catching them.

Make the yellow light longer, stop all traffic for a few seconds before giving the green away and implement stop lights for the left turn at all major intersections. Depending on the time of day and traffic the stop lights should adjust for better traffic flow.
