Watch the idiot in the orange shirt almost get flattened by oncoming cars. The cyclist (idiot) had blatantly run a light which would have been red for a solid 5 seconds. I know the light timings at this junction because it’s part of my daily route.
The argument for allowing cyclists to ride through red lights, which I have made elsewhere and continue to support, only works if cyclists are giving way to any cars or pedestrians who have the right of way. In running this red light in this fashion, this idiot in orange showed no respect for civil society and thus reinforced the bad impression of urban cyclists currently held by many Londoners.
