A number of years ago I was riding a motorbike through Glasgow at about 5am and was stopped at a red right. A police car pulled up and gave me a right telling off for stopping and said that I should use my common sense and use rhe lights as a 'give way' when the roads were empty!If my sensible and common sense approach to red traffic lights "gives ammunition to the anti brigade", then they are just looking for an excuse to be anti. Which in a lot of cases, they are doing just that. Fair enough if they get a little peeved at nobber boy in the video, but at 2am outside Tesco in sleepy hollow? Come on!
I think we are failing to see the difference between harmless flouting of the law, and flouting of the same law that can have fatal consequences.
Not so sure I'll be trying that one in Manchester today
