Unless it is not safe to stopSorry, but if you have been done on a bike for jumping a light, then you have bloody well done it. Amber means stop.
Don't get this thread ? Fess up.

They already do! So, given that thats the case, I'd prefer this situation to be dealt with by having a word, it's really not worth the expense of taking it to court.2719651 said:Start picking and chosing which laws to enforce and the others may as well not exist.
No, it means stop if you can.
AMBER means
‘Stop’ at the stop
line. You may go
on only if the
AMBER appears
after you have
crossed the stop
line or are so
close to it that
to pull up might
cause an accident
So you were traveling under 10mph as well as braking lightly in preparation to stop, and yet you feel that the braking was sharp when the cyclist changed lanes infront of you?
Doesnt quite make sense to me.
This does not make sense. The view clearly was obstructed if there were vehicles in front of you.
The cyclist was operating a push bike, not a car. Driving license is irrelevant.
FORCE is not an accepted term.
The initial incident happened at about 1748 hrs, the interaction was over at 1903 hrs. That is one hell of a long traffic stop.
I have also noticed that neither of the officers said whether or not the cyclists stopped after the white line. Yes, crossing it is technically breaking the law but there is no mention of whether or not they continued through the junction or stopped.
I see no real evidence against either of the cyclists as it is just one persons word against the other.
Stand your ground and dont be bullied just because the officers are of the law. Equal rights whether or not they are officers. They need physical evidence to charge you with something, not just what they think they saw.

Sorry, but on a cycle, he has been a bad boy.
They have his name and address already, he has been caught, SIMPLE.
You can quote this and that, but to be pulled by a copper on a pedal bike, you have been a really bad boy.

Anyhow, cut to the chase here, RLJ good or bad?
For clarity the law as stated in Traffic Signs Regulations and General Directions 2002 is:I wasn't talking about the OP, just your ascertain that amber just means stop, which it doesn't.
For clarity the law as stated in Traffic Signs Regulations and General Directions 2002 is:
Regulation 36(1)(e) states that the amber-alone signal shall convey the same prohibition as the red signal, namely that vehicular traffic (other than tramcars) shall not proceed beyond the stop line, except that, as respects any vehicle (other than a tramcar) which is so close to the stop line that it cannot safely be stopped without proceeding beyond the stop line. In such circumstances, it shall convey the same indication as the green signal which was shown immediately before it.

Just to point out there is no Furious Cycling charge, only Wanton and Furious Driving (which applies to cyclists, horse riders and motorists alike)
Is taking responsibility for your actions such a bad thing for people to do nowadays?
