You're always going to get all sorts of idiots using all forms of transport. When you ride a lot you see the same thing happening with cars.
Although I suppose with cycling it's down to the lack of any training or reading of the highway code.
Go up on the pavement and around the traffic lights.
I'd say unless it's a major junction where they might actually die, 80% of cyclists jump lights.
Unfortunately there are several cyclists who give us all a bad name. But then, there are plenty of cars that run red lights or speed up through ambers.
Made up statistic is made up.
