A motorist is recovering after he was inconvenienced for 30 entire seconds by other road users. My thoughts and prayers are with him and his family at this difficult time. I hope he makes a full and swift recovery.

Followed these for a mile, is there any wonder motorists get pissed off with cyclists, anyone would think they own the whole road, unfortunately with latest rules they do.

We spend billions of pounds every year on building roads for private cars. Here we can barely see any of them using the roads. Time to cut back on road spending for the private car drivers and instead invest in walking and cycling infrastructure.

Car manufacturers market an experience where drivers enjoy freedom through driving in cities. In reality, driving in cities cannot provide such an experience due to congestion. However, cycling can, as demonstrated here.
