True and that would be appalling. But it would mean you've encountered a pretty suicidal cyclist and poor mental health is at odds with physical exercise.

Including the AA man (or woman) coming to rescue you.

You have got to be joking, esp with the second one. Of course they aren't trying to kill cyclists. Nobody wants to kill cyclists. But both those drivers, esp the second one, weren't playing any attention to other road users. I'll suggest they were so hell bent on protecting the valuable...

As said earlier. In that footage 2 of the 3 cyclists are pushed into the opposite lane. All perfectly normal. I bet neither driver gave it a second thought.

A frequent story I cough up involves a bike shop owner I know. He sold a bike to a pensioner because she was so sick of sitting in traffic while pootling around meeting her friends for coffee. They all laughed at her. With a month or two he'd sold bikes to each of her 5 friends.

It was posted on twitter at 1:56pm. I think we can fairly safely say the footage was taken some 6 (ish) hours earlier. The zebra crossing comment was a little glib, as I assume yours is too, because we all know there isn't a safe crossing x yards down an obvious residential street.

Sym is more than welcome to start a thread #TeamAntiCyclist - Red Light jumpers, on which he can show all the little pictures he likes. He might even be surprised by who agrees with him :wink: But that has no connection to this thread.

So no relevance at all.

Why should they? They are cars they are far more important than anything else.

and the relevance to the problem of cars using rat runs, is what exactly Mr Whataboutism?

The family weren't in trouble, but they just couldn't go about their day. I can assure you that is perfectly normal behaviour that all cyclists deal with multiple times every significant journey. I'll suggest you've done that to cyclists, there's no way I'm saying I haven't and I only look out...

All this could have been avoided if the council painted a zebra crossing at that junction.

Anyone live on a rat run? This must be all too familiar to some, between the hours or 8 and 9am. 1138444799139356683 Loving how we're looking at the family trying to cross the road, while the second cyclist nearly gets taken out by the black MPV.
