Harringay, Haringey - So Good they Spelt it Twice!
Cars jumping the lights - Time to demand action!
Recently the police spent 30 mins from 5-5.30pm at the lights on the junction of Warham Road and Green Lanes and recorded 17 bikes / 2 buses / 7 cars ran the red lights.
The police are looking to conduct a formal operation but this takes lots of time and resources. A number of groups (including the police) have pushed for a camera on these lights to catch the offenders but have been met with a lot of passing the buck.
It would be great to make a push on this - we need safe streets. Great to get support to demand action!
Note - Cameras won't catch the bikes but can make an impact on the other offenders. Something is better than nothing...

I drive across Green Lanes every day. I wait at the lights in Salisbury road, when they turn green I cross Green Lanes to enter Warham road. A few weeks ago, I was waiting on a red light and when it turned green I pulled away only to have a cyclist run a solid red light from my right (coming form the Salisbury pub side) and appear in front of me. I slammed on the brakes and he "jiggled" as he thought I was going to run him down. He cycled off towards Manor House...
