I tried that once David, up by the Hayrick. It was about 1:00 in the morning and the lights hadn't changed for about five minutes. It cost me three points on my licence and a fine. You can tell when the Leyland Police haven't got much to do at nights, they once stopped me and checked everything they could on my car. When they couldn't find anything wrong with it they reluctantly let me go on my way.
