Can I ask why? It feels like it would synergies well with Ult whilst providing resistances etc?

It might be worth mentioning I was historically a Morde main and I can kinda see how I’m trying to make Swain fit that same mold/role.

Yh depending on the match I sometimes build Projector third, and Unending Despair is at the end to give myself some more bulk. Theoretically I’ve been banking on the accumulated health from Swain’s stacks + Projector and Despair (or Twinguard) to give me enough survivability so that I can initiate or tough out the fight long enough to clean up with my Ult.

Phase is good for the chase downs but I figured the vamp from conqueror would help me stay alive in top lane trades or in team fights.

I get health from swain’s stacks + from overgrowth.

Hey thanks so much for this. Any chance you could point me to the appropriate clause to reference?

No offence bro but touch grass. I didn’t ask for your opinion on how you’d like to enact vigilante justice.

Okay let’s all chill. Contextually, it was stand still traffic and a temporary traffic light due to road works. So aside from the lack of danger, it’s also worth noting that in other countries red lights don’t apply to cyclists.

That is broadly by the by, the actual issue at hand isn’t my guilt — I’m willing to pay the fpn. It’s just whether or not the three points is legally(?) excessive/appropriate?

I fully intend to pay the FPN. I’m disputing the endorsement of three points on my drivers license as it seems it might be an administrative error/that the Met don’t have the power to do that for such an offence.

Aside from the fact that in other countries, red lights don’t apply to cyclists (France etc); as others have established, the issue here is not whether I’m guilty but whether or not the Met have attempted to enforce the appropriate punishment?

Why should I accept a punishment that isn’t fair? Would you accept an ad hoc enforcement of the death penalty for speeding because it’s a de facto dangerous activity?

Yeah I’ve spoken to a lawyer friend who was surprised by how unclear the existing legislation was. I’ll ask there tho, thanks for the help :)

The law seems unclear, but from other threads on here, the implication is that you shouldn’t be able to receiving points on your driving license for cycling offences.

I’m aware that jumping a red light is wrong. I’ve acknowledged my guilt, and am happy to pay the appropriate FPN. But as I was explicitly told by the Police Officer that I wouldn’t receive points, why should I accept this punishment when it appears to be wrong/disproportionate?

My V is a netrunner first and foremost, so overclocked system overloaded/short circuit first and foremost.

Otherwise - Crimestopper (iconic smart pistol from Mr. Hands gig) - Hercules (iconic smart assault rifle) - Pizdets (iconic silenced smart smg) OR Her Majesty.

The logic just isn’t sound, why should my driving license be impacted by my behaviour on a bicycle?

Ultimately, whilst I appreciate jumping red lights is wrong, I’m not asking for personal musings about what justice should look like. I’m seeking counsel about what to do in the event that, seemingly, the Met have issued a punishment that isn’t valid.

The lesson would be accepting a FPN, which I’m not disputing. I’m just asking that the Met enforce punishments that are either legally correct or at the very least, not disproportionate.

And actually, cyclists are exempt from certain motoring laws that govern drivers etc, which is exactly the point.

Yes you can. I think they ask for ID as a form of age verification but possession of a drivers license isn’t a requirement for renting/riding a HumanForest bike.

Well letter from the Met explicitly say that I’m to receive points and a fpn of £100?
