Whether the perceived inconvenience of the lights or lousy road planning is 30 seconds or 15 minutes, it doesn't justify drivers taking their frustrations out on innocent members of the public nor does it justify flouting the rules of the road in a manner likely to threaten or present danger to others. Boring as the Highway Code may be it is there for a reason which is primarily so that drivers can correctly anticipate what other drivers will do and act accordingly. There are other more constructive ways and means of getting the Council to at least look at rescheduling the traffic light phasing.
