• most commuting London drivers aren't bad at all because they know that their journey takes about the same time every time

    Good point, and Sue said that in Sidney, drivers seem to blame cyclists for delays, (despite the fact that they're mostly stuck behind other drivers so are causing their own delays)

    Working London drivers (deliveries, taxis, etc even some bus drivers)
    are far less tolerant.

    Indeed, in fact recently TfL found that London Taxis, Black cabs and private are the most dangerous vehicles on the road (See their recently published Cycle Safety Action Plan for the details (p14)

  • Probably not just London, in Belfast Taxi Drivers/White Van Man have a bad rep too.

    Though all Belfast cycling fatalities the past years were lorries or hit and runs. So it may be limited to mere aggro (been there)

    A stupid plan to let more taxis into the bus lanes luckily got thrown out this week.
