Forest hill road traffic lights: RED means STOP

[Mariamadeit]

To the lady driving the yellow car down forest hill road today at 2:30... When the traffic lights are on red, not just turned red, they had been red for a while, you need to stop, my daughter (aged 2) and I were in the middle of the crossing when you totally ignored the lights, and us and all of the other cars beeping a warning at you. Please drive with more care and attention.

Actually sounds likes someone who shouldn't be driving at all! Hope you and your daughter have recovered from what must have been a bit of a shock.

Cars have beeped me in the past for stopping at a red.

I wonder sometimes if there are a group of people immune from prosecution who do as they want.

Yeah, they are called bus drivers.

I had a car come shooting out of a side road today, without slowing down, or looking. Nearly knocked me off my bike. Crazy.

Serious question. Do the police do anything to enforce driving laws in East Dulwich and the environs? Speeding, ignoring traffic lights and zebra crossings are commonplace in my experience and something that can ultimately have fatal consequences.

Answer - Yes they do!
