If these cyclists were single file then the group would be twice as long, you’d still need to use the oncoming lane to pass them. It would take twice as long to pass them. Be patient, pass when it’s safe to do so.

I’m all for issuing FPNs to cyclists running reds. While doing so it’s important ensure the light was red when they crossed the stop line, not after (which this video doesn’t show). If you’re in this video and that’s all the evidence they have, don’t accept the FPN.
