+ "Illegally" entering the ASL would, of course, mean that he was caught on CCTV driving into the box while the traffic light was at STOP or red as practically any other situation would be legal.
He even ADMITTED regularly driving into the ASLs illegally, in court under oath!

Motorists are not very bright.
There was a case where a Taxi driver admitted to swerving at a cyclist.
In his defence he said "I only meant to scare him".
Fortunately the jury recognised that deliberately driving a motor vehicle at a primary road user was an admission of guilt and found him guilty of Death by Dangerous Driving.
You failed all your attempts at the driving test, then?
