So here we have one of the country's main advocates for cycling admitting he is unaware of laws applicable to cyclists!!! The mind boggles but it does give us a view of the major issue surrounding cyclists and road safety, and that is cyclists can take to the road completely clueless with regard to riding safely.

Maybe we should send him a copy of the Highway Code then send him on a Cycling Proficiency Test!
wouldn't hurt to send a copy to his wife as well ,after all she is a barrister and should have known better
