Re: Yet again - Cyclist Killed in London
I found myself driving behind an elderly cyclist yesterday, barely at walking pace.
Too much oncoming traffic in a narrow road, so I just held back a bit and crept along.
Drivers behind us started to sound their horns after about 50 yards.
What did the old gent do? Gesture at them? Shout obscenities at them?
No, he stopped, got off his bike and pulled it onto the pavement and waved us forwards.
100 yards later I was stopped at traffic lights, and guess who appeared next to me?
Care, courtesy and consideration. A motto often unheard of by many modern drivers and riders.
