One major flaw in your argument is that there are no jaywalking laws in this country. Pedestrians are not legally bound to obey red lights. The Highway Code advises pedestrians to wait at red lights, but this is advice and not a legal requirement.


Cyclists, on the other hand, are legally bound to obey red lights, as are motor vehicles like cars and buses. So there's no point trying to use pedestrian behaviour to excuse the lawbreaking of wheeled vehicles, because the same laws don't apply.
