Spent a most entertaining afternoon the other day reading posts by cyclists explaining why they should not only be allowed to jump red lights, but also how if they hit a pedestrian it's the pedestrian's fault in the first place. I'd quite happily crush the entire lot beneath articulated tank treads, then reverse over their twitching, lycra-clad bodies.
Incidentally, cyclist hatred seems very fashionable these days. Isn't it about time you switched sides?

...which means nothing to these people. As soon as you make the slightest suggestion that they should take some sort of responsibility for hurtling around on an oversized child's toy, they scream bloody murder: "Car drivers are mean! Cabbies are mean! White van drivers try to kill us on a daily basis! Therefore we should have carte blanche to run down pedestrians as we like, because cycling is the greenest form of transport!"

which has to be about the most dangerous bit of road for a cyclist within the M25, but I find as long as you've got a sense of awareness and you signal clearly to the other traffic, even white vans will let you through when you need to change lanes.
You were well unlucky to get a cycling ticket though, that's almost unheard of. My missus got stopped by a copper for jumping a red light a while back, but she just cried at him until he let her off

Pedestrian crossing on red man, hit by cyclist going through green light. Where does the fault lie? How about when both the pedestrian and the cyclist are on a red light? My friend was hit on his bike last week by a taxi driver going through a red light. Is it possible that a small percentage of human beings are willing to risk going through a red light, whatever type of transport they're using? That your hatred of cyclists is perhaps a teeny bit irrational?
Here is an indisputable fact for you: If overnight, 50% of road traffic was suddenly bikes, everyone would be safer; the pedestrians, the remaining car drivers and the cyclists alike. Admittedly, they wouldn't be as safe as if those 50% had become pedestrians, but even if a small percentage of the cyclists ran red lights the roads would still be safer than they are now. It is basic physics that cars are heavy and move fast whereas bikes are light and move relatively slowly, that is why there should be different rules (or shall we just have the same set of rules from everything from a microscooter to a supertanker?).
The car drivers would also get to work quicker (therefore becoming less stressed) and they might not feel the need to spend the valuable third of their lives in which they don't have to work or sleep repeating Clarkson's tired patter about cyclists, speed cameras, the speed limit, etc etc. The world would be a better place. Just admit it.

FFS give it a rest - if you can't handle the road you shouldn't be on it - end of story.
If a pedestrian crosses on a red man and you hit him it's still your fault, because the pedestrian has right of way always, except on the motorway.
You'd know that if you'd ever read the highway code.
The world would be a better place if everyone laid down their arms and planted flowers in the barrels of all the guns.

sorry, where in my post did I suggest I run red lights? I'm saying that there should be a bit of proportion in the punishment. Currently, a pedestrian who runs across a junction gets a dressing down if caught. A cyclist might get a ticket, and a car driver might lose their license. Makes sense. Leave the law like that. I'm in no way arguing that cyclists are above the law, but it's just common sense that a car with momentum 1000kg *10m/s=10000kgm/s can do more damage than a bike with 75kg*5m/s =375kgm/s, so you should have correspondingly severe rules for breaking the rules. Or would you favour a Saudi system of punishment for everything else as well as cycling misdemeanours? No shades of grey, you're either on the side of good and righteousness or you aren't. Off with your hand.
Also, you can't possibly be suggesting that no car drivers or pedestrians behave badly in London can you emvee? Some people are dicks, get used to it. You notice them and the good cyclists blend into the scenery (or don't, because they have lots of flashing lights and hi vis on, but you get my point).

It's at Heriot-Watt, which is still a good uni. It's just that I've been a post doc for four years and wanted to get on a bit with this research lark.

which can be anything from just one stop to a couple miles depending on the route. We are in a price war with Stagecoach at the moment so we have on selected routes a £1.30 maximum fare offer terminus to terminus - and yet they still complain about the price!

actually that's not true we do a "Code 9" emergency call to Radio Control who try to talk to the person via the radio if that doesn't work the Police come to the bus and remove the person - either that or we employ "Driver Discretion" and continue in service regardless of the non-paying tosser. However, I had someone yesterday who in a drunk and insulting way demanded an "80p" I calmly told him we don't have an 80p fare it's 85p which after some moaning he paid but when it came to the fare stage he should have got off at he was still on, so I shouted back "85p, love!" he ignored me so I repeated, he ignored me, I switched off the engine, then he stomped off calling me a "tight bastard" and the moral of this story is - Don't insult the Driver if you're intending to overrride.
