Red traffic light jumpers.

It never takes long for threads like these to bring out the gammons! Is there nothing new in todays Daily Mail for you to get 'outraged' about?

Brilliant. Post #2 and it’s the cyclists fault already. Although not a single mention of cyclists in the OP.

Woah! I'm not one to be defensive, but hang on:

. I never said it was all the cyclist's fault
. I'm a cyclist myself
. I'm pretty sure that neither of us read the Mail
. I'm pretty sure that neither of us fit the definition of 'gammon'
. Unless my copy of the Highway Code is out of date, traffic lights apply to bicycles too

I've not seen many cars jump a red light, the last one was probably about ten years ago. He was flashed, and I hope he was penalised accordingly.

I see bicycles doing it most days.

Bicycles can be dangerous, and not just for the riders. A woman was killed by one near us quite recently.

Sorry, that has gone off topic.

Standard defence ...

Bicycles can be dangerous, and not just for the riders. A woman was killed by one near us quite recently.

... how many killed by cars, lorries, vans etc ... how many have died of obesity related conditions?

Yes some idiots ride bikes but the real risk to pedestrians and road users isn't cyclists is it ...
