Does that absolve responsibility of cyclists passing left-indicating vehicles on the inside?
Two scenarios:
- A lorry ahead of me is indicating left. I wait, the lorry turns, I continue.
- A lorry ahead of me is indicating left. I continue travelling on my path as if it is not there, and get knocked off.
Who has created the danger there?
Presumably if you were indicating right and somebody on a bike overtook you, you would be annoyed?
- A lorry ahead of me is indicating left. I wait, the lorry turns, I continue.

If a driver is in the outside lane, indicating they wish to turn left and another driver is in the inside lane proceeding straight on who has created the danger in scenario 1 and 2?
In both cases it is the driver who is turning left.
So now lets consider a cyclist in a cycle lane wishing to go straight on and a left indicating vehicle, who is creating the danger?
In both cases it is still the driver wishing to turn left.
i'll take 'an industry that habitually employs provably dangerous individuals as a result of an almost non-existent system of checks and balances on their suitability to operate a 20 ton vehicle with demonstrably poor design in the public domain' for ten.
