Karma?

I told a friend about my typical but crazy journey through the "computer controlled" traffic lights of Cheltenham going to Gloucester yesterday. I met 13 red lights and 6 greens (2 of which were pelicans). He said that it was karma getting its own back on me for my anti-traffic light blog. If I believed in karma I would agree but I don't which leaves me with the belief in incompetence at County Hall (whoops, nearly misspelled it to something rude but funny!).
