Cars could save a lot of time blowing through red lights too. They'd burn a lot less gas if they didn't stop & go, which would save energy and world resources.

Assuming they don't crash of course; but since we're assuming the cyclist isn't being hit and killed on their way to work - I think we can assume the car is making it through okay too. It is laziness - and a sense of entitlement. "I'm on a bike so everyone else must wait on me and find a way to break the laws of physics (pun intended) to prevent their car from hitting me". It saves a lot of time and energy until you get struck by a car. Which could result in the loss of all of your time and energy. Not a worthy trade off.
