Yes, it made my day, too.

If you ever see me around town, then I'm that grumpy old bloke at the set of lights obeying the red signal, going "Tsk" and generally tutting under my breath, as my lycra-clad fellow cyclists whizz through. If they happen to look back, then they'll see me shaking my head and looking at them with the most disapproving face that I can muster.

Even though I don't have children, there is a part of me that believes that we have a collective responsibility for each other. This law breaking behaviour sends a highly irresponsible message to children who may be watching from, say, inside a car. And may cascade down into their minds to ultimately replicate this action without having the true skill level of an adult to handle the situation. Saying that, the few accidents that I have witnessed, including one truly grisly accident scene at Vauxhall Cross, involved an adult cyclist going through a red light.
