This no doubt also explains the cyclist who tried to kill me as I was
getting off a bus a coupla weeks ago. They spend so much time looking
for people who are *trying* to kill them (of whom there are
approximately zero) that they don't bother to look out for people who
might accidentally kill them (most drivers), people who might kill them
because the cyclist did something stupid (the driver of that artic), or
people who they might kill (me).

You can't spend much time cycling in London if you think that, then.

On every visit to London I can guarantee you I will pass at least one taxi
stopped in a cycle advance stop box as well as several motorbikes. I've
had my ration of both already and I'm not going back to Cambridge till
tomorrow afternoon. The motorbikes problem has been made worse by Boris
allowing them in his bus lanes.
