The problem with this thread is that all cyclists have been categorised as "idiot cyclists" and most people on this site are good drivers
and that should come out in there riding style.
This isn't about thinking we are above the law, it's about self preservation.
When you cycle regularly enough you come to appreciate where its safe to be with regards other road users. My last accident was at a T junction, i was
going to be turning right so moved to the right of my lane, but a Picasso was turning right as well coming towards me , he cut the junction off and o
went through his windscreen.
Now i approach the same junction to turn right but i keep to the left but now i have the problem of drivers passing me turning left when i turn
right.
I think all people in a one and half ton vehicles need to remember that if we the cyclist make a mistake it doesn't hurt the driver does it.
