I’ve seen cars get T-boned after running a red light, you will not survive that on a bike.
Ok, let them earn their Darwin award, that’s their decision to make. Same with riding without a helmet, I don’t really care if someone else has a death wish.
It becomes a problem when they’re endangering other people, that’s why cars running red lights is wrong. A car running a red light is orders of magnitude more dangerous to everyone around it than a bicycle.
As long as you follow the rules
In a lot of places bikes can go through red lights if it’s clear because it’s safer to allow them to get a headstart on the cars and get in front of them where they can see them, instead of waiting for someone to turn right into you once the light turns green because you’re in a cars blindspot.
