So why do cyclist think they are immortal?
Because cycle lanes are sited on the inside lane to allow cyclists to get to the head of the queue?

There was no such thing 27 years ago.

Cyclist must realise, that there safety is on the own judgment.

I seen loads of accidents on the pavement where it is an offence of cycling.

Even when l drive my car, l don't go anywhere near it, or even juggernauts
I imagine you've seen motorists doing stupid things too?
