see, i don't think that would help our cause
just riding tonight into bromley's befamed bromley a driver practicaly ran me into the curb, although there are cyclist paths, I feel more comfortable on road
I pulled along side the driver, an old chap, and asked if he was aware he nearly ran me into the curb, he refused to comunicate and shut his window
i then rode in front and took "command" position and snails pace to see if he would communicate then,
nothing so i filtered and rode on
also
instead of castration or bombing campaigns, with younger more fiesty drivers, (usually on main roads), i usually let them start first then ask if they want to come down a quiet road with no cameras or witness and this has been sufficient enough to difuse situations
