• I was waiting at a red light circa 7am,(full green man flashing) enjoying the fresh morning air…a couple of cars at the perpendicular junction (i.e. to my right) idling waiting for their light. I get the green light and pull away…hear a massive revving to my right…look right and see some lowered, black hatch-back boy racery type sh!tbox, flying towards me at.........
    This guy ran a straight red at high speed…there was no amber coming or going…

    Not trying to make excuses for this idiot but is there a left turn filter light for the traffic to the right? I've had a few close calls over the years caused by filter lights. The traffic in the left lane starts moving under the green filter light and some numpty waiting to go straight ahead takes the movement of the left turning traffic rather than the traffic light as his cue to pull away.
