us do it:

" Sometimes I jump red lights because there are no cars coming and I
can't be bothered to wait.... But my point is this. I'm pretty
careful, I don't endanger pedestrians, I don't slow cars down."

Yeah, that's my approach when I'm driving my truck home from the pub
after 8 pints. I'm being 'careful' so what's the problem? Get off my
back and stop harassing me with your petty laws, go catch some real
criminals....

Articles of this kind do not reflect well on cyclists.

Bollox!
