Bus driver complaint and OYBike

There have been occasions when I've had to wait until it was safe to pass a cyclist, but after getting past it never takes long to catch up with the next traffic jam. Unfortunately the thought process of most drivers doesn't extend this far. I'd say bikes cause far less delay to cars than any form of motorized vehicle. They're not so much worried about the delay, which they must know is almost always temporary, as following the golden rule that all cyclists must be instantly overtaken regardless of the circumstances. Sadly, this also seems to apply at red lights. I've lost count of how many times i've cycled up alongside a line of traffic at some lights and come to rest a little way ahead of the stop line (i'm a sinner, i know), only for the car next to me to rev up and move forward all of six inches to draw level ... ASL's all round, i say. tom -- So the moon is approximately 24 toasters from S****horpe. |
