A new one in my cycling experience in Toronto. I got rear ended by a food delivery cyclist. They were too busy looking at their phone to notice the light was red. After hitting me, appologiesing, they continued on their way running the red light while looking at their phone.

Sounds about right. Those jobs don't pay much. Some of those bikes look so badly maintained and decrepit that I am not even sure their brakes work. Police don't enforce anything. Chances are the riders don't have any insurance that could cover any damage or injury so unfortunately it's all about avoidance. 😑
