And do you then, having queue-jumped in front of them as would have
been the case in this situation, stay ahead of cars trying to do 40
mph down a narrow road with neither effort nor prayer? I could have
done it, by taking the primary position and riding at a normal
pace, but that would have been stunningly antisocial.
I take advantage of being in front to get to the side of the road by the
time I have crossed the junction.
These days there are times when I walk across the line and start off
before the signals change if it is safe to do so, to be sure, I must admit.
