Red light jumping - a confession

[blazed]

Ah, blazed is back. So it's not just 9 points then, but fines for running red lights! LOL! You really are building up quite a persona aren't you!

I deleted that post because i realized he was talking about cycling i forgot this isnt a car forum. But that is not a persona, if you really wanted i could scan my license and any number of fines (id guess i have well over £2,000 in fines this year).

In fact i have a £150 one from farringdon sitting in front of me right now, but im a gangsta like that.

If you feel the need, feel free. I'm interested to try and understand someone who wants to boast about the amount of fines he has and the amount of points on his licence. You are exactly the sort of person on the roads that need to be 're-educated' to make our roads safer.....IMO.

Ah! The reason for the LBS thread is becoming clearer.

Could have had a nice bike for £2k

Maybe if you justify it by saying that you have Look pedals, can't trackstand, and due to the absence of an ASL you feel under pressure from the cars behind while you attempt to clip back in?

Sounds like me! don't ride in many cycle friendly towns so never seen an ASL... Still I wait at reds and just irritate drivers as I move off trying to clip back in!

I have made maybe two posts about my points, hardly boasting. I said that in defense of you saying i am developing a persona. You are calling me a liar so by scanning them it would prove otherwise. Im not boasting about my points, people like me dont need to boast about anything especially not that.

When are you back to school blazed? Are you prepared for the jump from infants to juniors?

 

[magnatom]

Ah well. If, as you say you do, you have 9 points (in 5 years) and you are in fact old enough to have a licence, then at least we can be safe in the knowledge that a future ban is just a formality and the roads will be just that little bit safer.

In fact, that might explain the recent interest in cycling!

Bah! You beat me to it.

It's funny how we seem to get more trolls in the summer months!

I wouldnt be surprised if they want me back at school to give speeches of encouragement to the kids. Show them what you can become if you put you rmind to it that sort of thing.

I cycle because of constant shin problems stopped me running, cycling is actually pretty enjoyable i wish i got into it sooner. I am a true piranha on the road and hit higher speeds than most cars which is probably why i dont run into any problems because i dont get in everybodys way.

A petrol-intoxicated troll? Inspiring.

I jump them as well.
I get so fed up, I easily cycle through over 100 traffic lights on the way to work. if it's one of those day's where nearly every single one is red, i'm going to jump the ones that aren't controlling traffic on a junction.

In fact the other day, i jumped one... stragiht away behind me i hear sirens, turn around and it's an unmarked police car... luckily it wasn't stopping me and had someone to catch.

Jumping lights is hardly the crime of the century. and i'm sure if you put the drivers from the cars and made them cycle over 140miles a week through london and i bet they would jump a few.

Im not a troll everything i have said is fact or my own opinion. Just because it is different to yours there are still lots of people who have the same opinions. Trolls just go around disagreeing with everybody whether they believe what they are saying or not.

Bollocks. You're gratuitously slagging off independent bike shops, shamelessly promoting a massive car-parts-and-accessories retailer, and not even noticing that you're on a cycling forum. You are right about David Cameron, but that's hardly a challenge.
