Stricter liability for drivers

^ Depends when and where you took lessons and/or the test. I learnt to drive in Slough c. 2010 - we never encountered cyclists on those roads, so there was precious little talking through how to manage encountering cyclists. I presume that learning in London is different though...

not much different if you experience cycling in london you will realise that as in Slough london car drivers are given very littler talking through how to manage encountering cyclists. they are probably taught how to force them off the roads.
