How about the three or four people at the front of the stop line when you got there, that have already overtaken you 3/4 times in the past few sets of lights and now again you've wobbled over in front of them for < 7 seconds of being in front again. Do you consider their safety or just your own and pedestrians?

(Don't want to derail thread but complaining about RLJing is pretty common here.)
If no peds are crossing and no cars are coming why not?
I'm riding a bike, I'm not motorised traffic.
Why wait patiently at red lights when it's clear to go?
To be clear, I won't go through lights when peds are crossing nor when cars/lorries may hit me and I know by heart the sequences of every single set of lights I go through. I also prepare for the sequencing to suddenly be changed. However it's still technically RLJing.
