I believe the trick is to anticipate failure, and call out the normal thing instead. So you’d always slow down at every light, and only speed back up after calling out green. This is what all drivers are actually supposed to do, although I fully realise nobody practically does that, which is why we get so many automobile accidents all the time.
Only speed back up after calling out green and intersection clear.
I don't necessarily always do that, and don't make audible calls, but when driving at night or in inclement weather, I try to make extra effort to check for unexpected cross traffic.
