I reckon you'd see that about one cycle of the lights in 2 or 3 (from
cars). You'd probably see more if the impatient car could overtake the
law abiding one.

Hmmm. In terms of cars being naughty and going through lights just after
they've changed to red, you may have a point. However, cyclists seem much
more brazen about jumping lights in the *middle* of the red phase. There
is no question that for the set of lights I use most often (the pelican
crossing in Bewdley town centre) cyclists are *much* worse.
