Stopping at a red light.

[Yankee]

Anyone remember when this used to be a thing?
Twice in the last few days I've slowed down as it's gone to red and the car behind has overtaken and gone through.
The twats deserve to crash.

Been a lot more prominent post covid.

More thick twats.
More impatient twats.

A crash is what they deserve mind, agreed.

Seen a few just go on red lately. Nuggets

It’s not even when it’s just changing these days. Quite often see two or three cars going through when it’s fully red.

Self entitled a-holes just doing what they want

A modern affliction

The biggest problem is they probably don't realise they could kill someone as well as themselves.
Plenty of nuggets on the road now.

I see traffic jumping lights most days.

Nearly got took out by an artic on the Newcastle Road roundabout between Chester le Street and Birtley last week. I was turning left to go up the A693 and started to pull forward when the lights changed, but a lorry coming up from Blind Lane didn't stop even though his light must have been on red.

Scotswood roundabout off the A1 is really bad for it.

 

[FootballFan]

I go through on orange plenty times, never on red

Maybe there should be built in automatic weaponry systems that fire missiles if none emergency vehicles go straight through a red light.

Post covid. Wild west. Nee police. Dee what the fuck ye want

 

[daventry cat]

When there pretty much no deterrent then the behaviour of selfish arseholes gets even worse.

Was stopped in the second lane outside the Travelodge/ Chester road junction on Thursday at a red waiting to go straight on toward park lane A huge truck from a Sunderland HGV training school came racing through the inside lane, would have wiped out anything in its way. Even the good lady let out a WFT.

Too many people these days slamming the brakes doing an emergency stop soon as the light hits amber

Looks like we've outed a nugget lads.

 

[Epping]

Temporary lights I see it all the time but I also see it on some lights by my house more often.

One way on the lights where I live they have a camera. Catxhes a fair few but the worst is coming from the other junction.. pisses me off no end . We have all done ambers but loads are doing blatent reds

No traffic police anymore. 14 years of cuts to police budgets saw to that. If there aren't cameras people can do what they want with no consequences

 

[Horatio Pugwash]

I’m surprised there aren’t more reported by folk using dashcam footage in the same way as cyclists are reporting bad drivers.

There are loads of cameras out there

Dashcam cameras are very common

Time is money, these people have important things to do. Same as the tailgaters and undertakers. Have to shave a few seconds off their journey time.
