The lady, this morning, who yelled "red light" at me did not understand that the twenty feet between us was more than sufficient room to get through safely (I had seen her crossing before she knew I was coming and positioned myself to avoid any collision) and that my running the red got me another block ahead of the cars that would eventually accellerate to 40mph (in a 30) and overtake me.
While I agree with the sentiment behind what you wrote, I do think it's a bit off for someone to complain about the selective enforcement of laws while advocating for the selective disobeyence of laws.
