Default Another RLJ incident

Would have been hit by a RLJ van today, but I had seen it was not going to
stop and so did not set off when my light went green.

Thanks, it just goes to show that you should *never* trust a green light.

So you don't actually have any proof that anyone jumped a red light.

Thanks for the clarification.

Simple Simon Mason - who cycles at 25mph in 20mph limits just because the limits do not apply to cyclists.
This includes exceeding the speed limit past three schools. A total disregard for the well-being of vulnerable road users.
The actions of a true psycholist.

Did you get a video of him & the other 7 jumping the light in 34 seconds?
