Yes. Especially the little side turnings with taxis and PHVs trying to edge their way out. Safe as houses.
Although I should note that although I used to really enjoy embankment the way it was before all this, I've recently started using the cycle path between blackfriars and Westminster and found it's pretty good. Most days it's a sea of green lights. I do find it unusual that there are a few deadly pinchpoints, and a couple of dangerous right turn bits for cyclists, but it's generally pretty quick.

Yeah, it's shite. It's the slowest and most dangerous part of my journey. Arsehole cyclists doing bellend things, close proximity to arsehole pedestrians and slower than just riding along the road. No benefit whatsoever to me.
