    It becomes much harder to zipper merge, when there is a red light ~500m ahead and said 500m is almost full.

    I also hate it when I am waiting at a red light and someone nearby suggests me to just skip the light, because I won’t get a fine (bicycle). I feel like people taking a test for the license (and renewing their license) should be reminded that the reason traffic laws exist is to prevent traffic jams and accidents.

      Anyone suggesting you should skip a light because you’re on a bike, is not someone you want to listen to.

      Stay safe out there.

        Last time I remember, it was a Swiggy driver. Those are infamous for not caring about traffic rules. Probably not much about their lives either.
        The chap would have cut the light himself, if it were not for the police car nearby.
