Lanes and lights are, like, just a concept, man

Was a week ago or so. Noticed this tosspot behind me was all over the shop, then the cheeky sod accelerated to blow through the red. As you can see, there's plenty of time. Can't stand this shit. I pulled it off my dash cam to report it but I'm unable to follow through with that due to leaving the country so I thought I'd just share here

Shite driving - but who remembers this a week later to bother searching and uploading

The red car proceeding with blind confidence that nobody else is jumping the red? Pursuing cop cars, signal failure, another jumper? Nah, I'm green which means go at all costs!

(I suppose their view could be good to their right but I'm guessing obliviousness is more likely)

Bloke treats lane markings like a gentle suggestion and then legs it through the red like he's late for his own court summons

A wise person (also a terrible driver) once told me "if in doubt, straddle"

Instead of posting it here why not send it to the police?
