As a pedestrian, I feel threatened by both bad drivers and bad cyclists -
and I certainly accept that there are bad pedestrians as well. However,
in general driving offences in towns (where I am most likely to be
walking) are illegal parking and speeding. What they don't do is to drive
at night with no lights, to drive the wrong way up one-way streets,


I see that (and making a illegal left turn that conflicts with
the green phase of a pelican) regularly from car drivers.

to crash red traffic lights.


I reckon you'd see that about one cycle of the lights in 2 or 3
(from cars). You'd probably see more if the impatient car could
overtake the law abiding one.

I see this behaviour from cyclists just
about every day, and I am not exaggerating.


Illegality is endemic on the roads, I agree, and no mode of transport
is exempt.
