On the Road when it suits, on the pavement when it suits, through the Red Lights, No Lights dark clothing, and they deservedly get Squished the driver gets blamed.
By the time all the mirrors are checked a cyclist has ridden into the area of the first mirror that was clear a moment before. Not only has the driver to check the mirrors he also has to look through the windows. I drove trucks and mobile cranes in London back in the 1970s and was amazed that the cyclists could appeared in both side mirrors within seconds, then try and undertake at a corner that I'm signaling to turn at. I was lucky there were far less cyclists on the roads then.
What about the knob cyclist going down the inside and Uber bellends cutting in and out ? They don’t pay so don’t let them on a road! One hundred percent support cyclists but they need their own lanes no where near a road!
'5 of the cycling deaths involved HGVs' if these idiot cyclists didn't go through on the inside of an HGV those 5 might be alive now (assuming thats how they died of course) they never learn even if the HGV is indicating a left turn they still go on the inside and stop right beside the cab where it is impossible to see them, but as i said they shouldn't be on the inside of an HGV, thats asking for trouble
Time to test the cyclists and their bikes and should carry insurance details ,their is some appalling cyclists out their with lack of road sence and manner`s
Same old same old blame the drivers NEVER the cyclists.
