Those cunting cyclist using a bike....because they are able to.

New highway code hierarchy explained - and cyclists get priority over drivers

DRIVERS now have to give extra priority to cyclists that are travelling on UK roads. The new rule, which came into force today, means drivers won’t have as much power on the road when it come…

Some dangerous new rules imo none more so than allowing pedestrians the right to cross on a junction you are turning into, people will be knocked over as they just walk out in front of cars, how will this work in a big city where there are people waiting to cross roads every minute of the day, of course, you stopping as you are half way through the action of turning will surely mean a greater chance of somebody else running into the back of you.

Discuss.


ps I used the sun as it isn't behind a paywall and has diagrams lol

Works totally fine on the continent

I've just nearly been knocked over - twice. Crossing in front of an exit from a car park, a car from behind me enters against a no entry sign. 50 yards later, a woman ignored a zebra crossing I was half way across. Almost needed a hospital. Good job I'm at one.

Regarding the new rules, I foresee multiple instances of people crossing roads looking at their phones being hit by drivers looking at their phones.

What difference does it make to you what people wear? Why do you feel the need to shame them? These are the questions you should be asking.

Lycra is particularly comfortable to wear on long, sweaty cycle journeys.

Yeah right, you’re the one with all the swear words .. “****”, “fucking” etc. And you think I need to calm down?

Sorry I’m just rough as toast and that’s how I speak. **** is a term of endearment to me.

If it makes you feel better some of me pals are cyclists and I don’t actually mind them.

When you’ve nearly died a couple of times because others don’t like you just being there it kinda gets under the skin a bit. Not that cyclists can’t be cunts too.
