• Thanks for the input. I should have thought really.

    OK, while we're on this kind of topic: you're cycling down a marked bike lane with free flowing traffic to your right. A car "overtakes" you, indicating left about to turn into the side road 100m to your left. Now that looks like a classic left hook but what defines that exactly?

    What if you have ample braking time to let them do it? Does their left turn count as moving across a lane? It seems like a grey area.

    100m is roughly the stopping distance for a car travelling at 70mph. Hopefully, you will not be riding that fast in traffic.
