There's plenty of discussion about cyclists riding through red lights. I don't know of any surveys of cyclist caused driver irritation, but I bet if there are any this is right close to the top.
I'd like to recognize red-light running as a vehicular problem, not specifically a cycling problem.
In this town there's an intersection monitored by infamous red-light cameras.
Through September of this year 4,571 citations have been issued at this intersection. In July alone (the high month) 33 citations a day were issued.
Red light running isn't just a cycling problem.
Coming soon: The MinusCar Project identifies which red lights he rides through, and further admits his secret desire to be cited for it.
(I'm lucky nobody reads this thing.)

I would say that I treat red lights like stop signs. I stop, look both ways, and then proceed if it is clear. It gives you the advantage of being on a bike and also keeps you safe.
I feel the same way about steeling.
