OK, the back story,
i was a cycle courier in London from 1991 to 1995. In the days when the money was well good vs rent.
Back then i really don't remember many people waiting for red lights, well most couriers didn't.
I moved out of London in 2002.
This week i am working in London Mon to Friday and i am taking the opportunity to commute from New Southgate to kings cross.
Loving being on a fast bike in London again.,
I have noticed how almost all cyclists wait for Red lights.
I am surprised.
Whats changed?
Has there been a crack down by police on this?
There are way more cyclists now than back in the 90's. This is great.
So maybe the proportion of naughty courier types is much lower in the cycle population now?
I think its great that people do stop for red lights, its just a habit i picked up back then that is hard to stop. (pun not intended)
