for some reason the people that wait absolutely till its 100% safe to cross, once the lights gone red and then the little green man comes on and then they wait a few seconds just to double check its definatly safe and then they cross. This winds me up no end for some reason, anybody else gets annoyed by this? or is it just me?
For me as soon as the traffics slowing or the lights orange im off like linford christie! EAT MY DUST! :weee:

if you can see the car slowing then fair enough, but if they are still coming i’m hesitant. not to get morbid but on a main road near where i used to live a child was killed when a mother stepped out with her push chair and a car went straight through the red light.

bit like zebra crossings. i always wait for the car to stop before i go.

Does seem ridiculous. I can understand when mums are doing it with their kids…teaching them the Green Cross Code or whatever….
It makes me laugh when you are passing people on the otherside who haven’t mooved, get some funny looks…:weee:

What really annoyes me is people that walk really slowly infront of you & you can’t get past….makes me wanna kick them in the back of the legs or slap them round the head:you_smart

i think people who wait to cross the road at green trafic lights when there are absolutly no cars deserver to be hit by a rouge plane crash and slow walking people who block up the whole path so you cant get passed need to be banned from the pavement and made to walk in the raod .. see how fast they run with a fat up lorry driving at them eh! :laugh_at:

I don’t think it’s that stupid. My auntie was almost run over when it was a green light. The stupid cunt didn’t see it and knocked her on her arse, she was alrite but had he been going faster it probably would of done her a right wrong un. I see enough dodgy drivers out there and don’t trust none of em, specially old people!!

sorry to spoil your illusions (god forbid you ever get a car!) but a green light means go … so the car was well within it’s rights to drive through it :laugh_at:

Round here we got a set of traffic lights that stay red for fucking ages. The OB like to hide a bit down the road and shop people running the lights. I swear they tinkered with it themselves! :you_crazy
