[QUOTE="jank, post: 7149066, member: 4093"] Ah, now we are getting somewhere. It is of course obvious to anyone that different road users carry different consequences for the laws they break. Jaywalking shouldn't have the same penalty as someone who breaks a red light in a truck. If you jaywalk, you won't kill someone else, although you may put yourself in danger. If you break a red light in a car, you could easily kill someone else. There is the difference. However, some people think all road users are exactly the same, and should be punished exactly the same. The guy on the bike breaking a red light should be punished and treated exactly the same as the truck breaking the red light. The gravity of the consequences aside. It is of course stupid and its not how the road works. But this mere fact rattles people. [/QUOTE]
