Paris is going to allow cyclists to skip red lights

Cyclists in Paris are to be allowed to ride through red lights, as city authorities seek to cut pollution levels by tempting more people out of their cars

A network of new traffic lights for bikes will allow cyclists to either ride straight ahead or turn right, even when cars are stuck on red.

Tests carried out in 2012 suggested that allowing cyclists more freedom would improve the flow of traffic and cut the number of collisions, especially those involving a car’s blind spot.
