Default cyclist accidents

whenever I hear of cyclist killed in accidents, I remember the last
time I saw a cyclist going the wrong way on a cycle lane using a
mobile phone, or going thro the yellow box at a junction against the
red lights(Hackney road/Shoreditch high St), on almost every occasion
when I get a bus into the city, I see some cyclist doing something
against the law( and common sense).

I drive a lot and I see cyclists with an apparent death wish every day.
Today at the Gants Hill roundabout one tried to incorporate me into
his suicide scheme but I refused to cooperate.

If you want to have a good rant against idiot cyclists then uk.rec.driving is
the place to vent. xposted.

I think it's rather more full of trolls who hate cyclists these days.
Doug doesn't really constitute "full", and the rest of us are all
drivers as far as I know.

Or perhaps you are picking up the mantle of promoting the myth that
anything less than uncritical admiration for the motor car somehow
constitutes hatred of all drivers; that's not an especially productive
way of escalating your trolling activity.
