In the last few days, I have commuted to work by bike, driven at rush hour and been out for a non commute ride at rish hour.
The amount of people in whatever mode of transport who do not stop at red lights is astounding. I always was taught to believe that a red light means STOP.
These days it seems to mean stop if you want to and if not you are ok to carry on and its not your problem.
It seems to me to be a societal issue towards authority and rules rather than a particular type of road user. We seem to have moved into an era where people do what they want and complain if they suffer any adverse consequences
Rant over - instead I'm off to shelter from the 14996 mph winds in Cambridge that the BBC tell me are here. Meanwhile those in florida are panicing about wionds of only 1/10th of the speed BBC say we are getting here
