It does inadvertently make the point I try to make to people criticizing bikers 
for running or rolling stops.  Which is, if a biker goes through a red light, 
who's most likely to get hurt?  And if a driver goes through a red, who will 
get hurt?  
It gets Darwinian, because reckless bikers are a self-correcting problem.
BTW, just to nitpick on Dave and Donna, the bike and cars didn't do anything 
wrong.  The rider and the drivers received tickets.  It helps to humanize.  ;)

The news said both bike and car were ticketed, yet the whole broadcast focused 
on bikes being a problem! Dave
