WHY jump Red Lights

Post by Markmyatt7 » Tue Jan 29, 2013 9:05 am

It's getting worse. This morning on the roundabout where A45 meets M42 - L200 type vehicle blatantly jumped red light after 3 seconds of it being on red. He nearly crashed in to car in front of him as he was obviously going too fast to jump light.

It is happening so much more nowadays and I've seen so many near misses.

Why do they take the risk.

Do we need more cameras at traffic lights?

Local highway authorities seem to be fitting more cameras at light-controlled junctions to try and catch these idiots. I've had a few close shaves where bozos have jumped red lights.
