This is brought up on a regular basis, nothing ever happens, nor should it. This 'going through a red light' used as an example, I see people chancing their arm most days, and they're not elderly. The only way people would be caught going through a red light is if they caused an accident by doing it and the police attended. There are very few no traffic police around here.
There is a cafe adjacent to a zebra crossing on the main road here. People park on the zig zags to pop in. When I was younger that was a hanging offence. I saw a works van parked on them yesterday and two coppers in a corsa just drove past, never batted an eyelid. That is the state of road policing in this country.
I notice there was no input from police or government in that article, it would cost too much and it would further isolate the elderly rural population. They can't even fund social services properly to stop kids being murdered FFS.
