What the **** is a pedestrian doing in a bus lane in the first place?

Perhaps if there's that many pedestrians in bus lanes, those big red
vehicles ought to be banned from them, too? That'd make life easier for
cyclists, as well.

Oh, wait. That'd leave them as "cycle lanes". And we all know that
cyclists don't actually like to use cycle lanes, because it makes them
feel "segregated"

I don't know about any of this, I've never said anything like those
views. Why are you so angry? Is this thread a tectonite plate? Posts
from people from UK rec driving wibbling about "miltant cyclists"? We
still don't know who they are, are they armed?

Urban roads are changing. Cycling rates are up, cycling's getting more
money, idiot drivers who take absurd risks with tragic consequences
will receive stiffer penalties. You hate all this, I know. It's
happening, deal with it, I don't bother with cycle lanes cos they're
more dangerous than the roads I pay for. Can this be a tectonic plate
with a bit less aggression please? I'm happy to defend what I say, I
don't claim to speak for anyone, nor is appealing for safer roads
"anti-motorist".
