Personally, I've nothing against sensible cyclists. However, the ones that think they own the road (despite paying no road tax) deserve no respect from me. I'm just waiting to see one go steaming through a red light and come a cropper. It won't be me stopping to pick them up.

what a bell end!!
To the previous poster who believes that red lights do not apply to cyclists, please pull out in front of a 44-tonne wagon doing 40 mph through (his) green light on a rural crossroads. You will soon find out who has right of way! That is, of course, if you are not spread all over the road!

You don’t have to pay vehicle tax on following types of vehicle.

Also "New cars emitting less than 100g/km are exempt from road tax – so we rate them all, from A-Z"

This is also a stupid argument, since when is the amount you pay relevant to how much "rights" you have on the road, this is not Russia.
You been trolled
I wouldn't do that at a junction, so why would I do that at traffic lights?
Could it be that If I see no traffic it's safe to go, OH NO WAIT a red light says NO, must obey the red light..........
Nothing wrong with cyclists jumping red lights, they are not mandatory for cyclists, not even the police care to arrest them cus that's reality.

A bit like motorcyclists who want car/van/lorry drivers to give them space on the roads and treat them "just like a small car". That is, until there's a traffic queue and they don't want to sit in it "just like a small car" would have to....
The only space I want when I'm on my motorbike is space to overtake, when I pass the chances are you will not see me again, so I will not impede your progress, 99% of car drivers make room for us to pass, there are some who deliberately position themselves to try and bar us from overtaking, my reply to this is to knock their mirror off as I thread my way through!!
Road-going cyclists are the blood suckers of the everyday, decent, tax-paying motorist.
Bloody dangerous, selfish freeloaders. Get off the highway you bums.

Makes you feel proud to be British!
My way.... they would still be alive.
The real reason is that Dutch cyclists have common sense and are not arrogant like British cyclists.
So, AaronSearle, you think red lights do not apply to cyclists. Read the Highway Code, and do it before venturing out again! You also say that the police do not prosecute. This is the fault of the police, and they are guilty of dereliction of duty if they fail to deal with red-light jumpers. I recall some time ago an arrogant little twerp of a cyclist was pulled over and given a fixed penalty for something like jumping a red light. He refused to pay, went to court, stating that as a cyclist he was not subject to the same rules as those using mechanically propelled vehicles, but nevertheless, was convicted and received an even larger penalty. Shame he wasn't sent to gaol for six months, the arrogant swine!
Pred, no, I am not referrring to the White Van Man. I work in an office which overlooks a major roundabout in the city. Last year a cyclist ignored a red light, and was struck by an HGV. If cyclists will not abide by the rules, then they must expect to be killed.
