That there are idiots who use the roads in various forms of transport, does not make all cyclists, motorists, motorcyclists, lorry drivers, van drivers or mobility scooter users dangerous.
Yet lazy, can't be asked to look car drivers want everyone else off their precious bit of road.

In my experience, the biggest proportion of idiots on the road are cyclists. Ignoring the rules of the road, assuming traffic lights don't apply to them, cycling without lights, leaving trails of old ladies lying strewn around on pavements.....
There should be much better police enforcement when it comes to dangerous cyclists.

And that is one of the problems as there is no enforcement generally.

Absolutely none at all, Den. I think I'll raise it with my MP next time he comes calling for my vote.
