There are at least 8 completely different behaviours/strategies/tactics at ASL boxes. From polite queueing up or getting ahead of the person you'll overtake when the lights change all the way down to not giving up a fuck and undertaking and barging past all of the people that have just overtaken you for the 5th time.
say hi to the fellow pushbikers
Talking? Umadsis?
(well...that may work with the 3 at a time in Belfast in London you probably get 10 in one ASL...Q much pushing and shoving?)
10? I've seen 100+ in the ASL boxes at a big junction like Grosvenor Road/Millbank/Vauxhall Bridge. Rarely ever any pushing and shoving, rarely ever anything other than a quiet tut or a shake of the head.

Is there such a thing as ASL etiquette?
I tend to let the person who is in there first set off, but on several occasions I've had people squeeze in left (i am in the middle, cos cars...) and then set off when it's still red (ped green...sigh) or just set off and I'm not sure where they're going either as there's no indication given, so should I step on it and overtake or is that rude again?
Maybe a first person there goes first, indicate for the others and say hi to the fellow pushbikers won't go amiss? (hah I could start a trend :P)
