Same happened to me on my way home to London near Farnham, Hants; police
car shot out across a light-controlled crossroads on the A31 at a good
60mph, while I was crossing under a green light at a similar speed, and
missed me by a hairsbreadth. It would have been a spectacular smash if
I'd been a second or two further on.

Farnham is in Surrey. Of that stretch of the A31 [within Farnham] there are
two sets of traffic lights, both junctions having excellent all round
visability to spot vehicles "jumping the red". Would suggest that you were
either driving without due care and attention not to observe pontential danger
or the near miss was more like a mile.

You are now a member of the tall story club.
