Daft question. =20
How many of the instances of 'red running' were false calls, that is no
one was waiting to cross, because the pedestrian had seen a gap and
already crossed? In other words, is it a case of drivers identifying
that no one was at risk and trying to reduce their delays. Totally
wrong but understandable.
