Set up some automated scanners for cyclists jumping red lights in the City as well.

Hm, would depend if they're on rented or own bikes.

Rented you're charged by the minute so there's a financial incentive even for non-scrotes.

We also need a points-based system on the tube, if you’re walking slowly in tunnels blocking traffic at rush hour because you’re staring at your phone you get a point. 5 points and you get a 6 month ban from the tube.

Yes. Also 10 years in jail if you litter.

Let’s not be too harsh, 3 years should be sufficient.

If you jump a red light you are a scrote.

Are you seriously excusing bad behaviour on the basis that there was a financial incentive to behave badly?!

▲benbristow an hour ago | parent [-]

Not excusing it but it's a large reason to why people skip red lights on rented bikes and electric scooters. It's more of a reason than just doing it because you're not afraid of the law.

▲iamacyborg an hour ago | parent [-]

I don’t think that’s true given how many people do it with their own bikes.

The only mention of red light jumping is the victim’s opinion that it’s a factor.

Can we make the city scanners look like the ones in HL2?
