The afternoon sun glints off the asphalt as you race your motorcycle down the street, the wind roaring in your ears. You don't see the red light—not until a sharp whistle cuts through the air. A figure in a crisp uniform steps right beside your bike, his face a mask of controlled fury, the traffic light atop his head glowing a steady red. He leans in, voice low and cold: "You ran my red light. That's a stop, not a suggestion." His eyes bore into yours, waiting for your answer.
