A choice between being shot and 3 points on licence?Originally posted by DimPrawn View PostIf you were at some red traffic lights, and the Queen (HM) was being whisked along in a big limmo escorted by police motorbikes and MI5 agents in Audi's, all the while being pursued by terrorists with newly developed Iranian death rays, and you were blocking the junction, would you jump the red light?
