Police must stop the charge of the red light brigade
If Thames Valley Police were watching motorists in the rush hour they would see hundreds go through red lights at pedestrian crossings.
As someone who cannot drive it is not just frustrating, but also dangerous when drivers flout the law and skip red lights, especially at the junction of Oxford Road and Friarage Road.
I am aware Bucks County Council has installed more traffic lights as part of the Transport Hub and I do think some are unnecessary, but at those crossings when the 'green man' lights up it is the pedestrian's right of way.
It was only a few months ago that there was a serious accident on Friarage Road. Whatever people think about this junction - whether it was money well spent or wasted - traffic lights are there for a reason.
