    What kind of bike do you ride? How many kilometres a week do you typically ride?

    Only cyclists? Do you frequent the motoring forum to complain about the 240,000 drivers who have penalty points for driving offences against them? And they're the ones being caught.

    You've posted in the cycling forum 9 times. Once about a shop, everything else is about how they should be licenced/insured/registered or how you see hundreds break lights everyday.

    You no doubt see rule breaking, but you're reverting to some serious hyperbole here and overblowing what you think you see. I see hundreds of cyclsts everyday. Out of that, I do see in the 10s break lights. I see hundreds of cars every day. Out of that I see in the 10s break lights.

    3 abreast you say? Unlikely. 2 abreast from behind does look like 3 abreast though if it's a bit out of line, or on a day like today very windy were keeping formation may be difficult.

    This group were just being belligerent, revelling in taking over the road.

    okay folks - back on topic about measuring red light jumping. i'll not be bothered explaining why further off-topic posts might be deleted.

    actually, a friend of a friend works in DCC in the traffic control room; i must ask her if there's anyone in there who'd be interested in doing an AMA on boards about how traffic flow is managed in dublin, would be interesting to hear it from their point of view; and about some of the changes recently i've seen on a couple of junctions where lights have been changed from a general green to only displaying greens in specific directions.
