Police spotting (junction watch)

A one day blitz is nothing more than a PR exercise. Unless plod is out there day after day enforcing the the law this is nothing more than a headline for the day.

Might help shift perception of cyclists bringing accidents on themselves.

My take is that this will increase the perception that cyclists bring trouble onto themselves.

So the red lights are now policed. Yet even if they were policed every day from now on, there will be the same punishment passes, the same "stay on the left", the same SMIDSY, the same "we can't do anything unless there is a serious injury", the same, same, same.
