Default Cyclists allowed to run red lights?

Next lights you see that are in the process of changing, whilst you've
got a police car following you, feel free to just blat through as
they're very nicely orange. Don't forget to ask the nice officers to
make sure they charge you, because you want to clarify the law.


If, as you claimed earlier, going through the lights on amber is not an
offence, what exactly do you expect them to charge him with?


I'm not the one trying to legally clarify whether it is or not.


And neither are any of us.

I asked whether there was any legal definition of:

"You may go on [at amber] only if ... you ... are so close to [the stop line]
that to pull up might cause an accident".
