In the news today, an update on operation Safeway. (Not sure why it's named after a defunct supermarket.)
"Between Monday and Wednesday, 755 FPNS were also issue to cyclists for jumping red lights, cycling on the footway and having incorrect or no lights"
So, the act of going through a red light to escape a left turning lorry is being enforced against with a special operation - instigated as a reaction to recent lorry/bike fatalities.
